Not the typical BIF shot... I like the relative sharp bird flying through the reeds

Raul,
Great capture, like the low flight pattern from your stealth bomber...:D
Hmmmm, wish more of the face was in the clear.
I'm impressed the focus didn't shift to the reeds in front. Was this AF or MF?
It was AF, I think the small aperture did help me or I was plain lucky.Quote:

that is amazing that you got it this in focus with all those grasses!! very interesting!
Could it be called contrast? What camera are you using and what AF setting?
At the time I was using the (orignal) digital rebel, AF center sensor, one shot (the rebel does not have AI servo) .... was pure luck.Quote:
