I'm noticing, that quite often, we can squeeze any photo into any challenge by simply changing titles. I'd think you could put it in our current challenge,Road Signs Revisited, and call it: "Viaduct Ahead".
thx for all the comments, I have already submitted one for NG, and I figured in road signs I would get slammed for not meeting challenge...
I used a telephoto lens, on tripod, but I was only 4-5 feet from her, she held still for quite a bit, got 4 good shots, before my dog decided to try and eat her, he was what she was looking back at. lucky for her she can fly and alluded my dog.
Thanks for all the great comments.
p.s. my favorite part is all the water droplets under her belly still.
nope don't mind a bit
canon 75-300mm, shot at 280mm, 100iso, 1/250shutter speed, 5.6 aperature... I took another couple of same guy...in case interested
Wow. These are incredible duck shots. I like the nice blue hues under the wings. Did you do any post editing on the images? The depth of field is very nice.
WOW!!! I'm really glad you said Canon 75-300mm because I have this same lens. I will have to take my camera to the park and get some shots too. What post editing did you do? Any level adjustment, etc?
Incredible Shots!!!

I did some sharpening, very slight contrast adjustment, thats it,, and resized of course.
p.s. I find with birds getting them still is the trick, and getting them to be close to you and then background as far away as possible works well, maybe later I will upload some swan ones : ).

You may have just convince me to buy a "Rebel" as my next camera :)
