Shutterbug Photo of the Day

We love the sparse, minimalistic quality of today’s Shutterbug Photo of the Day by Attila Éliás.

“I just walked outside the city with my D3100 and my manual Jupiter 37A, and saw this bird,” Éliás says. “And I thought it could be a minimal photo in B&W.”

The settings Éliás used were F/8, 1/250 sec, with the White Balance set at Cloudy. The image was tweaked later in Lightroom and Photoshop.

See a larger version of the photo in the Shutterbug Photo of the Day gallery here.

If you want to enter Shutterbug Photo of the Day, post an image in the Shutterbug Photo of the Day Gallery and include your real name and some background on the image (how and where it was shot; the story behind the image; gear and settings used etc.) in the description field to qualify.

We will select one Shutterbug Photo of the Day image every month to run as a full-page feature in the magazine.
