Description
I haven't uploaded parrot photos for a while (even though if you just count numbers, it's the subject I've been photographing the most).I have a Red-lored Amazon (Amazona autumnalis) here for few days. This one is really nice and tame bird, it just sat there eating the peanut while I took some photos.
Naturally birds are a bit difficult to photograph. I didn't want to scare her, so I wasn't able to do that much tweaking. One mainligh and reflector, one light for the background (that doesn't shot that much).

You're right, I actually didn't get enough fill-light from the reflector and I wasn't really able to move the flashes around here that much. Thanks

Upea kuva, jälleen kerran

Heh, kiitos. Hyvin tulevat toimeen, lähinnä puuhailevat omiaan ja joskus istuskelevat jossain rauhassa. Merri nyt on muuten mahtava otus, vaikuttaa olevan hyvin kiltti ja kesy.

No hyvä ettei ainakaan tappelua tullut 
Kiltti ja kesy amatsoni ois kyllä mahtava... *huokaus*

Joo, itsellekin se kesy amatsoni kelpaisi, mutta sehän tässä pikkuhiljaa olisikin tuosta yhdestä tarkoitus tehdä.

Ja eiköhän se ajan ja kestävien hermojen kanssa vielä tulekin

Thanks. The DoF came out quite nicely. Though I had to use quite small aperture since I was quite close to it.

Lighting is really nice, as usual. The background really suits the picture too. I'm not sure if you intended, but that rope in the way might want to be stamped out or s/t, in case it's not meant to be there.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks. I think you're right about the rope, it was just part of the stand and personally I didn't notice it.
