The disputes between Snow Buntings are very brief and without injury but still amazing to witness.
Canon 400L f5.6 lens handheld @ 1/1250, f14, ISO 400, + 2/3 exposure compensation.
This is a 50% crop formatted for a 9 x 12 framing. The birds were off-centered to the left of the image, that is one reason why I had to crop down to centre the image properly.
When shooting two birds in dispute, I usually do not shoot tight, I prefer to crop in afterwards. These birds move so fast that it is almost impossible to get a tight shot off the bat without cutting off a wing, tail or a head.
A small clone of the upper right corner to unify the background. Background despeckled after sharpening to reduce noise.
Cheers,
