CommentRace leucophaeus. A very typical pose for this species albeit a little boring. Luck was with me finally... I have been trying for a photo of this species on our bush block for several years without success. I saw a pair moving around the trees nearby and, as I have many times in the past, stood still and hoped it would land on a tree near me - and then stay still for long enough to get a shot. The bird obliged but realised I was there, which is probably why it paused briefly (enabling this shot and one other keeper) before flying off to another nearby tree.
EquipmentCanon 80D with EF 100-400mm Mark 2, handheld at 400mm
1/200 sec, f 7.1, ISO 2000.
Initially processed in Canon DPP 4 to crop, adjust exposure and lighting and perform noise reduction. A 16 bit TIFF file was created from the RAW DPP image and finished in PSE (Adobe Photoshop Elements v9) where further noise reduction was applied to the main subject using Neat Image plugin for PSE. The background was noise reduced and the main subject sharpened.
LocationNethercote, New South Wales
