Meet The Winners: BirdLife Australia Photography Awards Has Announced The Best Shots Of Australian Birds (71 Pics)
#43 Youth: “Darkness” By Jacob Dedman (Shortlist)
“The humble Crested Pigeon is actually quite a nice-looking bird! It was an overcast day when I took this shot of the pigeon sitting on an old Sunshine gate at Pental Island near Swan Hill in Northern Victoria… meaning a slow shutter speed. But luckily, the bird cooperated with me! I like the lighting in the shot, with the shadows in the background allowing me to use my brush tool in Lightroom Classic to darken those areas using the blacks, highlights & exposure sliders.”
