A couple high points, I was on them at lift off and followed through until the buffer filled, all frames but a couple were in tolerable focus. Wing position and them unclumping from each other and the mallards, not so good, and they won't follow direction:D QUIT MERGING WILL YA. Don was back father than I was, haven't looked at his images yet, so that might be the secret, back farther and more time. BUT I did follow though completely which I have a really bad habit of not doing.
M111,300f2.8+2xtc@f6.3 ISO 640 (I sometimes get ISO 800 phobia),1/2000, +1. I use to use M mode most of the time with the 30D and have for some reason quit??
Hi Nonda, Nice photo. I like it. Soft colours, soft back ground, sharp. I like the placing of birds in frame also. Agree with you about the separation; it would have been nice, always tomorrow. Dave
Hi Nonda,
I like the composition, image and capture...the details are sharp with good color rendition...I like the birds with the raised wing position and the lower duck with the wings on the down stroke...in an ideal situation, I would have liked to have seen no merging of the ducks...looking forward to your next one...:cool:
Nonda, Good job w/ this! The birds merging doesn't bother me as much since they aren't blocking any major parts-but do agree it would be better w/o the merge.
Had a choice, flat wings and not merged (one frame), or good wings and a slight merge. Good lesson, slight merge and good wings if those are the choices.
Will, I hope, get another chance at them Sat.
