    Default Bufflehead - Vancouver Island

    Technically not the best image...but I just love this species. From now until March there are amazing opportunities to photograph them here on Vancouver Island.



    Camera Model: Canon EOS 50D
    Shutter speed: 1/1250 sec
    Aperture: 5.6
    Exposure compensation: +2/3
    ISO: 400
    Focal length: 700mm

    Funny pose, the bird's right foot looks so big that one might think he borrowed it from a goose. :)

    Excellent shot of what looks like a take off? My only nit is te whites on the head and top of the wing look a bit hot. But, getting a flight shot of these guys is ridiculous and they are hard to expose when stationary.

    Some whites loks a bit hot and light angle was not ideal IMO, but the natrual moment cpatured and comp are very nice. Congratulaitons!

    Great looking duck. I'm sure the whites are hard to expose on this fellow.
