Ready to pounce!

Uploaded: January 28, 2011

Description


I have been working on converting some of my color images to black and white, with the hope of publishing a book of some of my best Eagle pictures. My goal is to have a few black and white images to compliment what mostly will be colored images in the book. In converting the images to black and white, I have found it very difficult to eliminate the gray tone when the background is dark blue. This is the closest I have come to achieving what I am looking for.

Canon 100-400L with Canon 1.4TC; ISO 800; 1/1250; f/10; 560mm
