This image was created on the morning of September 27, 2018 on the Fort DeSoto Fall IPT. I used the Induro GIT 304L/Mongoose M3.6-mounted Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 600mm f/4G ED VR AF lens and my souped up Nikon D850. ISO 400. Matrix metering at about +1/3 stop: 1/2500 sec. at f/8 in Manual Mode. NATURAL AUTO WB at 8:19am on a dead-clear morning. One down and one to the right of center/Group (grp)/Shutter Button/Continuous (AI Servo with Canon) AF as framed was active at the moment of exposure. The array was centered on the bottom of the base of the bird’s neck. Nikon Focus Peaking fine-tune was a significant +5. See the Nikon AF Fine-tune e-Guide here.
