Something different....

Blogs, websites, on line photo albums, social networks etc etc.......Cyber space has been completely saturated with images of SEO's recently...........and rightly so!

This winter has seen an influx of continental birds gracing our shores and the budding paparazzi among us have been filling our boots! Trouble is the majority of the images are a very similar, either a flying bird over grassy pasture or perched up on some fence or twig. Now when it comes to flight images I have hundreds, so I am well entrenched in that society but there really isn't anthing different. I'm still waiting to attain the perched up image, hopefully that will be soon so I can join that club too.

So I wanted to get something a bit different, but what? There really isn't much of an option there! The only thing I could work on was a different background, so my plan of attack was to set myself up in an area where a flying bird would offer just that and now finally I have achieved it, with the help of a dark hedgerow. The light was just magical' the bird a little more distant than I would have liked, hence some harsh cropping, but it is different.

What do you think, does it work?

  1. It certainly does Paul - its a super sharp image with fantastic light, as you say. I can't take my eyes off that stare!

  2. Looks good to me Paul. Did you see my vidiclip from Cossington earlier in the week? Get yourself over there - you might be able to get a shot with an Exmoor Pony as a background!

  6. Cheers for all your comments guys, yes Skev I did have a look at your video footage of the seo you posted. I think it was very effective how you managed to get the owl to drift in and out of focus whist dodging those dam thistle heads!
