Hungry Hawk
Contest Number: 139 Contest Theme: Birds Lens: HD DA 55-300mm f/4-5.8 ED WR Camera: K-70 Shutter Speed: 1/350s Aperture: F8 
Posted By: DTW, 03-01-2018, 07:15 PM
Dinnertime, with the late afternoon sun already down behind the townhouses.

My 55-300 really needs to be closed down to at least f/8 to have any sharpness at all so I'm pushing the ISO to 3200 on the K-70 here.

She ate quickly, and 1/400 just wasn't quite enough to freeze the worst of the action.

*Dreams about a DA*300 f/4...*
