The Cans were very active for a few minutes one day. Shooting was intense. I don't even recall shooting this.

Thanks everyone.
These Cans don't fly much either until the eagle flys over. After the eagle passes on, the Cans come pouring back in. No eagle today. Slow shoot.

Larry,

That is so beautiful! The focus is perfect, the exposure is perfect, the composition is perfect.........you absolutely nailed it! I really like the softer, not too saturated colors of the drake's head and the water. Really favorable wing position, too.


"Your" and "you're" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"They're", "their", and "there" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"Fare" and "fair" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one. The proper expression is "moot point", NOT "mute point".

Thanks all. I think it's my best to date. Well, maybe tied with the eagle with the grebe.
Sooo much fun.
