Havent seen these guys since the ice melted on the local lake!


172476444-L.jpg

PP and cropping in PS. Sharpened in ACR only, since I am ham fisted with USM.

Nikon D70, Tamron AF 200-500 at 500mm, f10, ss 1/500 sek, tripod.

Troublesome exposure and I am starting to trust the incident meter!

Edit to insert new capture from this morning:

172765360-L.jpg

hopefully will work.

    Thanks Dick. :D

    I'm quite excited by the opportunity to try the lens on these birds.
    Whoever would have thought more than fl 500mm would be a little better. headscratch.gifrolleyes1.gif

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
