I only managed to get One Photo today
« on: February 21, 2011, 01:45:18 PM »
Out of all the Hawks, Eagles and Trumpeter Swans I saw today, I was only able to grab one photo today. :(

They were either too far away to get a decent shot (even with my 400 mm lens) or there wasn't a spot to pull off the road, or like this guy he only gave me the time to grab One Photo. :(

Some days are like that!  ;)

Here is a photo that I took today:

That is a cool view.

Have you tried the camera and lens on a Good Tripod? Are the photos still blurry when tripod mounted?

What lens do you have and what camera?

I have found that if you do not have steady hands or brace yourself against something you can and most likely get blurry photos. :(

I am blessed with extremely steady hands. :) I just have terrible eye sight. :(
