Marbled Godwit, Drake's Beach
This photo was taken last Saturday at 5:10PM, which was 35 minutes before sunset. As with the bluebird photo of a few days ago, there was a strong color cast caused by the low sun. This time I left the color correction for middle gray, but disabled the color correction for black/white. That’s the opposite of what I did with the bluebird. If I had left the correction for black/white the water would have been very blue. The color correction for middle gray was small and this looked slightly better to me.
Look great to me, this is quite an impressive looking bird. Haven’t made it out there yet, maybe
next week. I’m at the mercy of my girlfriends schedule, she thinks I shouldnt go alone for first
trip and she’s familiar with the roads.
Glad to hear you’re going to get out there Charlotte.
