Well, I went to an old place where I used to do photography to see what it was like and to see if I'd feel safe. Was pleased that it looks like it may work. Unfortunately, I intended to work more with the new lens, however, I confess I got distracted! Geese with goslings, a GBH, and plenty of ducks! Off came the lens and back to my other. I eventually returned to my original purpose, but I admit I'm not wild about them. After I finished, I did some work with my guys, and one did a lovely set on the big flower pot. I can't say the other critters at the creek were as cooperative!
I will share some of the other birds later, but I was fascinated with the divers. My imagination went that one lost something, and the other tried to help and eventually had enough! When I'm at the marina, I can't recall watching any of them dive. It's quite funny. I am not pleased with the loss of detail in the mallard's eye, so I am open to feedback!
Hope, as always, you like!
Great set! It reminds me of a poem I knew when I was a boy
Well done, Barb! Dunking Ducks!

Thanks! That's the beauty of photography it stirs up memories! Neat poem.
Synchronized diving is an interesting sport to photograph!

Hm, you are right! So ducks also have sports!

You're absolutely right. I was 5 years old again
