Sorry. The WB looks artificial to me. I like the others much better.

All your photographs are, to me, truly amazing! I congratulate you on
your skill.

How fortunate you are to have such magnificent creatures as subjects. My
gut tells me that you've spent much time waiting for 'just the right
moment'! :-)

Yes they are nice captures, I wonder what the succsess/failure rate is.


Perhaps he'll tell us.

All I seem to see are pigeons and gulls, a couple of weeks ago I had two pigeons on my bathroom window sill. I did see a strange looking white speckled finch like bird on a DLR platform, but before I could get my phone out the train came in and it flew off.
I must visit Walthamstow wetlands one day, when it not cold and wet.


We did once chat about the green parrots I'd seen when travelling up the
River Thames on my narrowboat!

AWB in the D500 but earlier in the morning and in a different
location. Can look like this to the eye. The First I believe I had to
warm up the WB a bit manually.

Thanks, lots of practice. But also lucky enough to live in a n area
surrounded by two rivers which provide great habitat for eagles and
osprey. These were taken in Yorktown, VA which is where the mouth of
the York River flows in the Chesapeake Bay. The other side of the
peninsula has the James River. You can see a map of the nests around
the bay and rivers obtained from aerial surveys at the CCB portal,
https://ccbbirds.org/maps/#eagles


A recent article has questioned whether this area has reached peak
eagle density as the population has rebounded remarkably in the past
10-15 yrs.
https://wydaily.com/science-technolo...ed-peak-eagle/

The more yellow WB shot is on an oak overlooking the river across from
nest YK1503, latitude 37.224238, longitude -76.494181 Which is near
the Moore House where the Articles of Surrender where signed by George
Washington.

The other on the other side of town just past the bridge by the
windmill next to the Watermen's Museum.


Yes they are nice captures, I wonder what the succsess/failure rate is.

wildlife at College Creek by following the links off my home page at

Current setup is Nikon D500 + 1st Gen 200-400mm f/4 VR + TC-14EII

Hmm. Could have been something in the sky. I usually use AWB on my D500,
and have never had that shade, even at sunrise.
