Quote: Hi Jim,
That's a classic example of why GBH is a tough subject when it's not moving parallel to the photographer: the bird moves and the body slides into the DOF!
That's a "so close, it's painful" set of shots. I do love the details on the feathers, no question.
Regards,
Marc
Marc, you read my mind and it is why I posted this shot. So true! I continue to learn and hopefully I will get it one day! JIM
Quote: Wow Jimbo those are great shots. He/she must have just moved a tiny bit to be just out of focus. I still can't believe you get that close to them. Great shots!
Jim
Thanks Jim. Working at only F 3.2 only a slight move and I could losse the focus. Heron s move very unexpectedly. JIm
