I spoke and taught at the Midwest Birding Symposium last weekend. There were some great speakers and programs and I sold ever copy of ABP and ABP II that I brought along with a few fine art 16 X 24" canvas prints. There was not much around to photograph at Lakeside, OH but I did have some good chances with a few gulls. I created this image of a winter adult Bonaparte's Gull after taking my boots off and walking out into a rather chilly Lake Erie (to attain a decent sun angle).
Canon 800mm f/5.6 L with the 1.4X II TC and the EOS-1D MIII. ISO 400. Evaluative metering +1/3 stop: 1/500 sec. at f/9.
Don't be shy; all comments are welcome.
