COMMENTS: I always have problem with exposure when shoot this species in flight. the white feathers on the neck are always in the light but the black feathers below the wings are in the shadow. I have found difficult to capture details on both. I'm afraid the current sensor dynamic range is to small.

Hi Anghel,
Nice inflight with good detail, even if the exposure is not perfect. Good comp & POV also.
Believe me, everyone faces the same basic problems with regards to exposure, no matter what sensor you use. Much of it depends on the time of day and the lights direction..among other things ;}
TFS,
Howard

Felicitari, este o poza aproape perfecta!Mai multe detalii in locuri luminoase nu ar strica, asta se poate rezolva la prelucrarea pozelor!
