    Hi Paolo

    Good behavior caught !!! We have these guys at home also (catching fish) and they are difficult since the feathers are dark/wet. They need good light (not harsh) and fill flash does help. Also make lots of images since just the right angle to the sun will light up the bird and is the luck of the draw !!!


    Tech wise I'm a little confused with the +2 comp setting Hope you get lots of chances at these guys !!!!

    Hi Paolo,
    I like the capture...good advise given by Mr. Forns...you were dealing with harsh light coming in at an angle...I'm also confused on the EV reading...I would suggest giving the image a little bit of CW rotation, it looks like he is swimming up hill, also lighten the area around the eye and selective sharpen it...looking forward to your next one...:cool:
