Quite impressive as these birds usually don't give you much chance to photograph them.

Re: Grouse in Flight

Well caught Mark

Most of the body is in shadow but a two second fix is all that is required to bring in much more detail - either in lightroom or ACR just move the shadows slider to the right

Re: Grouse in Flight

Thanks for all the comments , much appreciated . I`m not unhappy with my original , but see how lifting the shadows more might be more pleasing to some , thanks Stan .
