Going thru files from this past winter. This was a fun shoot for me and I had the pleasure to return several times to find the grebes there again. Waders on low in the water Tampa Bay. Hope to see them again this year
Canon D MIII
300 mm 2.8LIS lens w2x
ISO 400 f8@1/200
Exposure, sharpness comp...all on the money. The shake with all the water droplets and the smooth water with clean FG &I BG really makes this one special. It was so much fun to have shared photographing these birds together...even if we did both fall in the water with our waders on. I was just lucky enough to have held my gear above water.
A classic grebe shake-off; I know it well! Love those droplets...great exposure and details as well...
Very nice, sharp and well timed...how in world did you manage a sharp and not blurred shot at 1/200
Cute as can be, Cheryl. Nicely composed with great action. Smooth water adds lots.
Very nice shot.
nice good detail,nice light,like the action,the bird looks like it has got its eye on the large drop of water in front of its beak.thanks.
Cheryl:
Nicely captured, and well done to get it sharp at that shutter speed (as mentioned by Phil)
Well exposed, nice angle in frame, action, all good.
I could see a version with a small crop from the top.
Cheers
Randy
Cheryl - nicely captured. Good detail, low pov and action.
TFS,
Rachel
Wow , now that WOULD be a miracle. That's a big fat typo... 1/2000 that sounds better huh? LOL Thanks everyoneQuote:

Its Beautiful Cheryl, loved the moment captured... nicely done.
really cool dynamic pose Cheryl! did they finally fix your camera?
Hey Arash, Thanks and yes they did. My last post, the reddish egret was shot with all the repairs . I am happy :)Quote:
