The afternoon of August 30 was one of my best ever at Nickerson Beach. Grace Scalzo got there late but agreed 100%. There were lots of young Black Skimmers at the edge of the Atlantic. Many, like this one, seemed to be drinking from the sand even when there was no wave in the vicinity.....
This one was created with the Canon EOS-1DX and the 800mm f/5.6L IS lens on the 3532 LS Gitzo CF tripod with the Mongoose M3.6. ISO 1600. Evaluative metering + about 2/3 stop: 1/2000 sec. at f/8. (I was set up for skimming action....) Rear focus AF with an off-center sensor active at the moment of exposure.
Don't be shy; all honest comments welcome.
