Watson Lake and Lynx Lake Duck and Critter Shoot
Jul 26, 2018 00:11:26 #
Took an Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark II with 40-150 f2.8 zoom and TC. for a test drive.
This is my first experience with the micro 4/3 format. Normally "full frame".
These are a few that I finished in Post. I haven't done this type of recreational shooting in a long time. Normally don't shoot birds and bugs. Went with a very experienced "bird" and "bug" shooter. . . My first time shooting Dragonflies. It was fun.
I neglected to put the camera on "continuous focus" for subject movement so most of the shots are a bit soft from motion blur. Shucks.
Images are Adobe RGB so best viewed with <Download>.
All are shot in Raw. Then >Capture One > Cs6.
Enjoy
Aloha

A really wonderful bunch of photos, Jim! Really fun to look at.
Thanks.
This was so out of my "normal" genre.
Had no idea that some Dragonflies had 4 wings.
Felt awkward but had a great time.

The Olympus OM M1 Mark II has different learning curve than the Full Frame Canon's that I'm used to.
Lot's to learn.
