Hello,
In my recent trip to Madeira I went on a whale watching trip. Though we were unlucky, it wasnt a total failure as we did see Cory's shearwater and a Manx shearwater.
We had around 2m swells and I was struggling to get a shot of the birds. As you can see the images are not clear. The Cory's seemed to hug the waves and I really struggled getting a proper shot.
I have a Canon EOS 450D, 100-400mm. I went with shutter priority (1/1600), auto ISO, spot focus. Light was decent enough. Is there something I could have done in such conditions to improve my chances?
Thanks,
Jasan.
