Green-Wing Teal
Green-Wing Teal Anas crecca
Photo Details: Canon 6D, 500 f /4 , 1.4 tc, 1/1250, f /7.1, ISO 400
Location: Vic Fazio Wildlife Area, Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area, CA
Process: These photographic illustrations begin with a photograph I’ve taken while bird watching with my sister the bird-spotter extraordinaire. With careful masking, I remove or minimize the backgrounds to direct focus on the subject or part of the subject. In some pieces, I’ve added a pale wash behind the subject. My desire is to create a finished piece that has a style similar to wildlife illustrations of the 19th and early 20th century.
All photographs and photographic illustrations that have resulted from our joint bird watching excursions are marked with a chop with the initials CL for Sharon Constant & Nancy Laffin.
