Photo #25 Birds of Paradise
January 7, 2010I know I have been horrible keeping up to date with this, but I do love the challenge, so I am going to continue trying to post a new picture every day. This one, I shot while sitting in my car in a Stater Bros. parking lot. There were some nice birds of paradise in front of me, and all of a sudden this bird landed on top of one. I quickly grabbed my camera, switched to aperature priority and shot off five quick shots before he flew away. It was then that I realised the ISO was set for 1600. Much too high. So unfortunately it is a bit grainy. I tweeked it a bit in lightroom so it is not so noticable, and I am pleased how it turned out.
