    Default Woody Waltz

    This handsome fellow was doing the erratic zig zagging they are so fond of. Taken at local vernal pond.

    Z6. 500 f/4 at f/5, ISO 1800, 1/1250s. Sitting on shore line in sled blind. Using the flip out screen to get the camera as low as possible.

    Post: Added canvas, noise reduction on background, cleaned up a few spots, including the 2nd catchlight in pupil. Raised the color temp of water a bit.

    Advice and comments always appreciated.

    Cheers

    Randy, is f/5 the equivalent of f/8-9 in old money?

    I like the angled pose, sharpness and calmness of that beautifully colored water. Very well done Randy!
