My first loon shots
Aug 1, 2017 07:48:30 #
Some friends of ours live on a lake. We stopped for a visit 3 days ago. While sitting on some lawn chairs looking out in the water, there were a couple loons swimming. Our friends took us out on their pontoon so I could get closer. I had just purchased a new Canon 100-400L IS II USM lens so thought this would be a great time to try it. Very happy with my results!!! I think I was within 30 feet. I did crop these photos somewhat. Have had my Canon Rebel T6s for a year and a half.

Cool.
Now if it were first loony shots, I have a lot of those.

Love loons! They are so beautiful - thanks for sharing! By just looking at them I can hear them calling in my minds eye :)

Very nice shots of this wonderful bird. I've seen a lot of good bird photos on UHH that were made with that lens. Have fun!
