Birdies
« on: May 12, 2009, 08:10:53 PM »
While out on the coast with Robodad I took 20 minutes to go down and shoot a few birds on the shore.  For those of you wondering about lenses, these were all shot with a 70-200 f2.8 L IS with a 1.4x teleconverter at F4, ISO 400, and aperture priority.  I got a few...

This looks like a B2 stealth bomber coming in for a bombing run


"Houston, we have a problem with one of our landing gear...!"


Graceful landing...


Just a robin.

Pope,

Awesome pics.  I aspire to take that quality of photos some day.
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.
