Red Kite backlit

Please check the large, if you don't like birds please move on.

Awesome shot. I have the same camera and want the 300 2.8. Nice combo. Just proves that focus isnt an issue if you know what you are doing. Can you give details on shot. Ex: f2.8 1/2000 1.4x or 2x or just 300mm. Thanks

Thanks here's the info

That's one of the best red kite shots I've seen.

... congrats ... IO Points ...

i think its a great shot, but (and it may just be my display) it appears a little over sharpened. the sky is kind of distorted around the wings... and it makes the wings look a little plastic. IMO it takes away from this otherwise amazing shot.

wonderfull, Necip. Regards. 7/7

Necip, this is GREAT. One of you best. The detail and DOF are excellent. Wish I had this talent and this was hanging on my wall. All the best, bb

Excellent again, Necip. Fantastic

Everything said above...it's maxano, regards, El

Necip,fotograflarinla bizlere bilinmezin kapilarini araliyorsun,iyi yakalanmis bir calisma,tbr.

I see noticeable sharpening too, as mentioned above, which is too bad because I think it would be an amazing image without the sharpening! (It still is)

Regards,
