4.1.05 Breland

Rosetta Spoonbill_0099

Lake Martin, Louisiana

Gayle and I went to Lake Martin again this morning. Gayle has wonderful shot of the chicks being feed by the parents. I spent the morning learning the in and outs of my new camera and do I have a long way to go. I was amazed at how many people were trying to catch spoonbills in flight so I tried too. This is one of my efforts. Not as easy as it looked. I took over 400 shot with only about 100 worth looking at. Guess I need more practice!

Nikon D70
1/200s f/7.1 at 70.0mm full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Oh by the way, I am lucky to get 10 out of 100 that I like. There again, digital is great and I think you learn and get better faster because of it.

A D70! Way to go, Breland. I hope you get a long lens for it by next spring. You and Gayle are doing amazing work at Lake Martin!

That is the best part of digital camera, you can take alot of shots. This is great Breland.

This is a great capture. Always a learning curve with a new camera. You nailed this one though.

Nice job! It is so hard to get birds in motion!

Fabulous Breland.
Good choice of camera, specially since you've got a built in supply of lenses. You are gonna have FUN, and be a force to reckon with.

Wonderful, Breland. My son wants me to get a D70....I'll keep watching your progress. You can do it. It will be a while for me, but perhaps someday.
