This fine fellow was captured last week through the courtesy of my friend Roy vanLoo. A small vernal pond that is quite popular with the Woodys and sometimes with a variety of other visitors. It is deep in the forest, and even the trees haven't leafed out yet, lighting is always a challenge.
Z6 500mm f/4. ISO 4500 1/640 s, f/4. Shooting from my sled blind, sitting in a few inches of water, camera on the same seat/pedestal setup that I use in my loon boat.
Used the rear screen flipped out so I could keep the camera low and look straight down at the screen. One of the applications where mirrorless is a huge advantage over Live view.
Post: Full frame. cleaned up some OOF water spots one wings, noise reduction on background only. Clone stamp over a few dark splotches reflected in the water.
Advice and comments always appreciated.
Cheers
