	My Old Kestrel Hi Guys, Went out this afternoon to look for some kestrels, and one in particular. This is an old female, that hangs around some grasslands, and she always lets me get very close to her, and is always very curious about "that guy with that lens sticking out of his car".. I can tell she is an old lady because of the wide yellow ring around her eyes. The wider the ring, the older they are. Greetings, Jeroen Stel Canon 1Ds Shutter speed: 1/200 sec Aperture: F 9 Exposure mode: Av Exposure compensation: - 1/3 Flash:no Flash exposure compensation: no Metering mode: Evaluative Drive mode: Continuous: frame 1 ISO: 250 Lens: 500mm F4.5+ 1,4x TC Focal length:700 mm AF mode: Auto Focus Full Frame Homemade Beanbag from car window for support Levels/Curves/USM/Contrast/Saturation/Noise Ninja/Lab-Sharpening _________________ Good things come to those who wait...

Nice sharpness on the bird, and good use of dof. Very pretty.
