Swan
Posted By: takis63, 12-06-2015, 08:35 AM

Some pics of a swan i took today.

Still learning how to use the Sigma 150-500 with my K50

I think i did better this time and the shots don't look blurred...

Very nice indeed; especially the last one of the goose in flight!

Very nice. You are getting the hang of the lens for sure.

Thank you. About the last one, i really like it too, as i had to go knee deep into some vegetation in order to get close to the lake and avoid the muddy stuff. Once the swan got airborne, it saw me but it didn't care and did some nice flying patterns. I have to say that it's wings were making a rather peculiar sound as it passed nearby...

Thank you. It's true that it does require a learning period, but it is so rewarding to see that your efforts did not go in vain

Thank you. Hard to get for sure. As i wrote above, i had to do some serious effort to get close to the action, but it paid off really nice
