Nature Some Saskatchewan images

Some Saskatchewan images · 10:07 PM

On the second day of me trip I stopped for a couple of hours at a Salt Marsh in Saskatchewan. All except the ducks are with the 16-45, the ducks are with Bigma. Here is the first instalment:

Comments are always welcome and appreciated.

These are excellent pics of - what appears to be - pretty flat country! I especially like 3 (ducks) and 4. I've never used (or even seen) a Bigma; did you hand hold this one?

Great stuff as always Heinrich.

Lived on the prairies for 17 years. One forgets how flat it is and how big the sky can be.

Nice shots Heinrich... Like Jer I like #3 and #4 the most... #3 because I simply cannot get the hang of BIF shot and #4 because it illustrates the desolation of the area most effectively.

Nice series Heinrich - love the Ducks in flight that is well done indeed. That last one catches my eye as well.

Looking forward to you taking us on the rest of the journey.

Heinrich, you always post nice images in here. These are certainly no exceptions. Not a lot of trees around those parts are there.

Jimbo · 10-18-2010, 06:43 AM

I am with the rest. Really like #3 and 4 Henrich. You have to love the praires. Spot your dog two day away. JIM

love 2+4 heinrich.... those are beautiful sweeping vista... the addition of the ducks and the movement of the grasses really add a dynamic touch... dave m

Thank you Jer and no, I used a tripod on that one. Things seem to get heavier every day and Bigma is not what one would call a walkabout lens.

Hi Mike and thank you. Once you get the hang of it BIF shots are not difficult, took me a long time as well and than one day "ah, that's how it works"

Take care,

Hi Dave and thank you. Outside work is almost done and than I will start processing in earnest.

Thank you for the kind words and no, not too many trees around there.

Take care,
