Stellers' Portrait
Yesterday when I was photographing chickadees a Steller's Jay landed on the perch I was using for my set up. Because I was zoomed all the way out for small birds the jay wouldn't fit in the frame. I just went with it and did a portrait instead. I really like the contrast of the orange and yellow against the blues. God's love and blessings to all, chris This image was created with a Canon 7D MkII camera and a Canon 100-400 IS v.1 lens on a Manfrotto 055XPROB tripod with a Bogen ballhead. Fill flash was provided with a Canon 550 EX flash set to -2 and 1/3 stops. The camera settings used were AV mode, ISO 800, f 8.0 at 1/60th of a sec. #TeamCanon
