About  Ready  For  Takeoff

Description

On a bright clear sunny morning,I captured this grouse against a bright blue sky with no distractions in the background. He was on top of a ridge next to the road and I shot up at him. By his out stretched neck, he's about ready to take flight.

Adjusted in PSE7.

Photographed in Theodore Roosevelt National Park, South Unit, Medora, North Dakota on 10-7-2012 at 7:23 a.m.
