Lookin' for a Scooby Snack
I've been doing professional photography for several years now with food, weddings, and other commercial jobs, and with my recent move to the country I have been looking at getting more into nature and bird photography for fun.
This is my first crack at it, and I know the images have a long way to go, but I was hoping you guys could look at these and give me some tips on improving. Here are two photos, and the third is at 100% crop. They are both pretty soft at 100%.
I'm using a Canon 5D Mk II with a 70-200mm IS lens along with a 2x extender. I think the largest problem I had was getting a sharp focus since the hawk was flying straight toward me. Do you guys have to manually adjust the focus when they are coming at you?
These were shot at 1/1250, f/5.6, ISO 800
