You know I hate you guys.... I've been trying for two seasons to get close enough for a good shot and out you go and nail it. LOL

Perfect, nothing more I can say.

Excellent exposure on these Dan and the detail is awesome. It looks like I wont be doing any post processing or even looking at my shots before the week is out as my son has taken over my computer for a major year end project ( my computer is the only one that can handle CAD and Archicad and Sketch...all architectural and monsters to run). So here I am on an old clunker for Internet access only :cry: ...will only post images already ready (got a few:D ). Hope I have something half as nice as these...excellent work and nice to see you guys.:cool:

Great shots, Dan. Love both shots. Very sharp, great color and composition. Would you mind posting the EXIF? Also, how far off were the WD's? The image perspective seems nice and close to the water.
Wonderful job!

Ron

Gald you liked them Ron! The EXIF as follows (I should really try to always include this info in the first place..):

1- 1/250s, f/8, ISO400, 275mm, +1/3 EC
2- 1/320s, f/8, ISO400, 310mm

The ducks came in fairly close...these shots taken from about 20-25 feet. I got some from even closer but I liked these better...

Very well done. The second photo shows just what a beautiful bird these really are. Great detail in the shot.

Absolutely beautiful shots of these unbelievable gorgeous birds.

That must be the 100-400. How do you like it? I'm thinking of getting one.
