This photo was shoot in Tampa Bay we were actually wading in the water in the morning on a clear day. It was actually taken with James Shadle's Nikon (I shoot with Canon and it was the first time I used Nikon) as my camera and lens when into the salt water.
Nikon D300 w/ 70-300mm Nikon lens at 300mm 1/2000 at f/7.1 ISO 400. Photo was cropped and exposure adjusted.-
Hi Steve - sorry to hear about your camera and lens :(
Three good HA'S - and two good wing positions - two outta three aint bad!!
The bottom bird is the main problem for me - merging with both the first and second birds and a less than great wing position.
Histogram shows the red channel is clipped - so just a tad of adjustment needed there.
BIF takes a bit of practice so well done with a strange camera and all!!
Unusual to get three of them !! Other than the merge its one fine image and keeper in my book !!! Did well with the exposure !! ... just the front bird would not have been bad at all !!!
Hi Steve, agree with others regarding the merge otherwise good action image...
Very sorry to hear of your camera accident.A number of years ago I was in Calif shooting a mountain lake at sunset and my camera wasn't secured on the ballhead properly. I lifted the tripod and both camera and lense
were underwater. Sickening feeling...
