I had a chance to go north last week and spend a few days with the local loons. Weather was iffy much of the time, so opportunities limited, but still had a great time.
D4 600VR TC1.4 f/6.3 1/1250s ISO 500 Pedestal mounted in the bottom of my little boat, "Loonie Too"
Post: Full frame, cleaned up a few spots in water, selective sharpening.
I had several frames of this scene, and chose this one for the head angle and interesting effect of water over the white breast. The tip of the bill isn't quite as sharp as I would like because of DOF, but overall, this was my favorite frame of the series.
I may find one or two more loons to post.
Advice and comments always appreciated.
Cheers
Randy
