    I captured this image at Lake Morton in Lakeland, Florida, early yesterday morning. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

    Nikon D500
    Nikon 500mm F/5.6 VR AF-S ED PF, camera and lens supported by a monopod
    1/500 F/5.6 Matrix Metering EV +1/3 ISO 180 Auto 1 WB, image captured at 500mm
    Post processed in Lightroom Classic, Photoshop CC 2021 and Neat Image for noise reduction when needed, work on the eye to remove a reflection and sharpen the catch light
    Cropped for composition and presentation

    P.S. Learn more about Lake Morton in the BAA Middle Florida Photography Site Guide that Artie and I co-authored. It is available at this link The BAA Middle of Florida Site Guide

    Hi Artie, thank you for viewing and commenting. Yup, a lot... I would say between fifty to a hundred on the lake now. Hurry back and be safe.

    High key works very well here. The framing and pose are right on.
