Since administration is encouraging posting images on the main photography Discussion site I believe I will start posting there also with a photo lean to them.
Lets see, please note that this image was taken with a Sony a1 (best camera on the market today) that should elicit some nice responses.
It was taken with the 200-600 zoom lens, (sharpest zoom lens on the market today) this should get some discussion also.
I like to take my meter reading off green trees which reflect 18% of the light, just like a gray card. Then depending on the color of the bird I under expose using manual one to two stops. Although on all white birds I might go even more stops.
On this shot I pre focused on the branches so when the Male Great Egret came in with nesting material I was ready to shoot and my Sony focusing system was set to Zone and it picked up the male in a nano second.
Shooting at 30 fps and I chose the shot that best described the situation.
Boy, this was fun.
