All of it on a monopod. ISO 800, f5.6 @ 1/500th, flash set to high-speed synch. The ducks are full frame, the lady cardinal is cropped. http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=3879093&size=lg http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=3879093&size=lg ======== Glad to know you used a monopod on this, I would have almost screamed if it was another handheld. :-)
Very nice ducks. The straw stuff makes a great background. When I have shot ducks (I do think the feather patterns are interesting), they just look like ducks. Nothing intriguing. So I know it's actually hard to shoot them and have them come out interesting. Nice shot! Marnie aka Doe :-)
