70% there
This photo is far from perfect. In fact, it's just a test shot to see if I could get enough sky at this angle with my mirrorless camera and if it looked too weird having these trees in there.
During the planning phase, I knew I would have to change the arm to a third-party one so the falcon wouldn't hit my character's hat or obscure his face.
I tried this several months ago with the eagle part but that was an absolute no-go. Look at that wingspan compared to the falcon's!
Tumblr media
The new falcon (available in CMF 24) has its wings up and they're much shorter, so it's easier to work with for this concept at least.
I tried the "victory" arm from Crazy Bricks first, but saw that meant the falcon would also be attached at a weird angle. So I went with the older horizontal arm version.
Tumblr media
I know lots of LEGO photographers hate Crazy Arms in particular-- it's too much of a departure and some charm is lost-- but I'm not too bothered if it's just one change that's not super obvious.
I mean, it's obvious in the above photos but not in the final photo I envisioned.
And that final photo was something like this:
Tumblr media
A nice sky with a landscape with mountains in the distance or open field.
That's just a shot with my window open and taken with my phone. Nice day, right?
And so we come to the boulder I found. I balanced the horse on it to see if it was a suitable spot and took a quick shot with my phone:
Tumblr media
I liked this rock, but it didn't look like I'd have enough clear sky with those trees and power lines. I'd probably have to move on to a different location.
But just to check, I took a couple of shots with my dedicated camera in my hands. Then suddenly the wind picked up and it started to rain.
I packed up and went home right away.
When I looked at the test photos on the computer, I saw that I got the angle, pose, and kind of rock I wanted but I missed the open sky and deeper depth of field.
But it's nearly there, and I'll take that for today. It's my win, my fulfillment, even if it's a bit short of my vision.
Tomorrow's another day and fingers crossed I can find a location that works and that the weather cooperates.

This Striking Image Won Our ‘Pictures of the Year’ Photo Contest - by Nina Strochlic | The National Geographic - Photography | 17th/01/2023 Asiilbek, a nomadic Kazakh eagle hunter, preps his golden eagle, Burged, for a horseback hunt in the grasslands outside of Bayan-Ölgii, the westernmost province of Mongolia. The eagle’s training begins when fledglings are captured from their cliff edge nests and taught how to hunt for hare, fox, and even deer. The tradition stretches back 3,000 years.
“For this image, I was lying on my stomach in the prone position looking through the electronic viewfinder at the edge of the stream,” says photographer Eric Esterle. “The ground shook as Asiilbek's horse passed less than a few feet away, splashing me with ice cold water. I remember covering my camera with my body and putting my head down.”

Yassen "not sentimental" Gregorovich, who drinks grenadine because Hunter introduced him to it, who threw away his grandfather's watch because Hunter told him to, who tried to prove he was a killer because he thought Hunter wanted him to be, who was happy about the scar Hunter gave him when saving his life, who wouldn't kill Alex because he is Hunter's son, because Hunter, because Hunter, because Hunter. But sure, Yassen, you're not sentimental. We totally believe you.

The amount of love/lust the wbg fandom has for Eagle is insane, so I'm making it my mission to be the № 1 Eagle hater.
