This image was created at the East Pond, Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge, Queens, NY CA with the Induro GIT304L Grand Series 3 Stealth Carbon Fiber Tripod (https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1158041-REG/induro_git304l_3grnd_stealth_carbon.html/BI/6633/KBID/7226/kw/INL3GSSCFT4S/DFF/d10-v2-t1-xINL3GSSCFT4S)/Mongoose M3.6 (http://birdsasart-shop.com/mongoose-action-head/)-mounted Canon EF 600mm f/4L IS II USM lens (https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/754508-REG/Canon_5125B002_EF_600mm_f_4L_IS.html/BI/6633/KBID/7226/kw/CA6004LIFEF2/DFF/d10-v2-t1-xCA6004LIFEF2), the Canon Extender EF 2X III (https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/732111-USA/Canon_4410B002_Extender_EF_2X_III.html/BI/6633/KBID/7226/kw/CA2XEF3/DFF/d10-v2-t1-xCA2XEF3), and my favorite shorebird photography camera, the Canon EOS 5D Mark IV. (https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1274705-REG/canon_eos_5d_mark_iv.html/BI/6633/KBID/7226/kw/CAE5D4/DFF/d10-v2-t1-xCAE5D4) ISO 800. Evaluative metering +1 stop: 1/800 sec. at f/10 in Manual mode. AWB.
Center AF point/AI Servo Expand/Shutter Button AF as originally framed was active at the moment of exposure. The selected AF point just caught the base of the lower mandible. Note the location of the four assist points in the AF Expand image below. Click on the image to see a larger version. FocusTune/LensAlign Micro Adjustment: zero.
As for the image, don't be shy; all comments are welcome. To see the full frame original, learn more about the fun time that I had with Isaac Hayes, and read the story of the image capture see the blog post here (http://www.birdsasart-blog.com/2017/10/05/celebrating-40-years-in-the-mud-part-i-a-common-af-expand-theme-mission-accomplished-in-part-and-white-rumped-sandpiper-identification-tips/).
