This image was created on DAY II of the 2016 Nickerson Beach IPT with the hand held Canon EF 400mm f/4 DO IS II USM lens (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1081814-REG/canon_8404b002_ef_400mm_f_4_do.html/BI/6633/KBID/7226/kw/CA4004ISEFM2/DFF/d10-v2-t1-xCA4004ISEFM2), Canon Extender EF 1.4X III (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/732113-USA/Canon_4409B002_Extender_EF_1_4X_III.html/BI/6633/KBID/7226/kw/CA14XEF3/DFF/d10-v2-t1-xCA14XEF3), and the rugged, blazingly fast, autofocus king, the Canon EOS-1D X Mark II with 64GB Card and Reader (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1221604-REG/canon_0931c016_eos_1d_x_mark_ii.html/BI/6633/KBID/7226/kw/CAE1DX2K/DFF/d10-v2-t1-xCAE1DX2K).
ISO 800. Evaluative metering +1 stop: 1/1600 sec. at f/6.3. Center AF point/AI Servo Expand/Shutter Button AF as originally framed was active at the moment of exposure (as is always best when hand holding). The image as presented is a vertical crop from a horizontal original. After expanding the canvas, I repaired two tiny clipped feathers.
As for the image, please do not be shy; I would love to hear what you think of this image.
