Birds Of A Feather by David Church

This image was taken at Bryce Canyon National Park, at one of the overlooks along the drive.  The two crows were just sitting on the ledge and I quietly approached them to start taking photos.  I was the only person at the overlook at that time.  They were pretty cooperative.  The shot was taken at mid-day, but it was slightly overcast, and I think that helped soften the image capture a bit.
The camera is a Canon 70d with a 18-135 mm lens at 64mm. The photo was shot at ISO 200 at f10 at 1/200 second.  It was processed with both Lightroom and Photoshop programs.
“I’ve taken photos most of my life starting at home with my Dad’s darkroom.  I joined the Caveman Camera Club in 2009, and since then have enjoyed learning and serving with a great group of folks”.
