Thank you for the kind words. You're wise to go on adventures now while we are able. Here's another from the same shoot (after I took my pocketknife to the dress):

K-1 ii, FA* 80-200, and Profoto B1X - 100mm, f/9

Congratulations. That's a work of portraiture art.
The lighting and PP work is exquisite.

Thank you! It's nearly straight-out-of-camera with just a few pieces of debris removed from the water's surface. This image represents how I feel about last year...

Nicely posed and lit, with the beautiful colouring we’ve come to expect from the FA* lenses. I really should exercise mine more.

Wood Ducks

I know this is a long time after you posted this, but it was about the same day we had a wood duck baby wander into our yard by himself. No sign of family and he was alone. We adopted him and it changed our lives.

We raise wood ducks now, and they are an incredibly beautiful animal. Thanks for the picture!

another one from the FA*250-600

Twenty-four hours after hatching, the baby Wood Ducks are getting ready to jump out of the nest. Their mother was waiting for them on the ground, about 5-6 meters down. They all got out in a short moment. I counted 14 of them.

actually, just pulled the trigger for a mint copy of the FA*400mm f5.6, I should get it next week...
that's going to be my new walkaround bird lens....

Can't wait to see what output I'll be able to extract from that FA*400...
