This image has caused me a fair amount of trouble. It portrays a duck emerging from under a dark bridge and flying thru a swath of sunlight from above. Now, the photographic capture alone is pretty tricky from the AF standpoint. However, what has really given some difficulty here was framing and exposure, while trying to convey the right mood of the scene.
A funny thing, the more I messed with it, the less I liked it.
So I have sat on it for a week, and finally reverted to (more-or-less) the original full frame image.
I am not really happy with it, but it perhaps does convey somewhat the scene as seen.
Taking a picture of a bird alone is often the easy part.
