This image, cross-posted from the current Picture of The Week thread, is part of a series captured with a handheld K-S2 and smc Pentax-F 1:4.5-5.6 100-300mm lens at a county park on Saginaw Bay in Pinconning, Michigan.

Although the bird appears to be a Great Egret, much of its bill is black.

I'll admit that I've neglected my K-S2 recently - a lot of moving around and needing to pack light has meant a Micro 4/3 body has gone in my bag on almost every recent trip. However, this week in Japan is 'Golden Week', a 3-day stretch of national holidays which essentially means a 5-day weekend for most of the country. Thus, I decided to make the effort and get out to some good places with my DSLR around my neck.
Yesterday I visited the Wedded Rocks (夫婦岩 'Meotoiwa') near Ise, in Mie Prefecture. What started off as a lovely day soon turned to some truly terrible light, and in the end I was definitely grateful for the larger sensor and its dynamic range. Lens was Sigma 17-50mm f2.8, 50mm f5.6 ISO100.

Images from a photo shoot at a wildlife rescue association









These images also are posted in the Picture Of The Week thread. The images were captured with a handheld K-S2 and smc Pentax M Macro 1:4 100 at The Association To Rescue Kritters (The A.R.K.) fundraising photoshoot at St. Helen, Michigan.
Some injured birds cannot be released to the wild and become education birds.

I purchased a Nikkor 105/2.5 Ai-S converted to K Mount for a mere $125 and have been enjoying it. I bought it for the Super Program I just received, but threw it on my K-s2 until my film comes in. A few test shots of Zekezilla
