    American Black Duck

    The creek was still flowing

    which is unusual for California's central valley at the end of summer. That makes Putah Creek a refreshing, relatively cool, shady spot, which lots of people enjoy visiting.

    Just kind of came upon these little guys in a narrow piece of water. Their mum was off to the left. They weren't stressed. This photo is being used by my local natural history group for our 2013 calendar.

    Testing a new used lense

    This was taken with a Sigma 400mm AF non apo. The ducks were at more of a side angle to the sun. This image contained virtually no red/cyan fringing. This was a hand held shot. I feel the sharpness is good.
