Birds in First Snow! —picture heavy! (1 Viewer)



Very heavy clouds and fog were not helping me in this but
the equation remains and should be completed:
I got the gear + here is the challenge = I'm gonna do what?

By law (physics laws that is!), birds will fly at the same speed
(flight is flight!) in good or bad lighting conditions. I should try
to get good results and the solution resides in tweaking the
shooting settings accordingly, accepting to compromise here
and/or there: higher ISO, same ƒ stop, and, when possible,
slower SS.

Every time it is different and, that day, some Great Egrets really
outperformed all the others birds show wise. The light was alien
somehow but that did not bother the birds.

Have a look, have a good time… C&C welcomed!

I love the action you've captured Kodiak.... particularly in the first three pictures.

Very well done and thanks for sharing them.
