CommentMale (left) and female (right) having a break from feeding - another shot from this sequence was used in the latest (cockatoo) comp. The male was in the process of preening, hence the slightly more scruffy look. The light speck on the edge of the male's right eye isn't a catchlight but a fleck of something very lightly coloured,
EquipmentCanon 700D with 100-400mm handheld at 400mm
1/250 sec, f8, ISO 400.
Initially processed in Canon DPP 4 to crop, adjust exposure and lighting and perform noise reduction on bird. A 16 bit TIFF file was created from the RAW DPP image and finished in PSE (Adobe Photoshop Elements v9) where the background was noise reduced and the main subject sharpened.
LocationNethercote, New South Wales
