| Description |
Wildlife photography for me is 8 hours of nothing happening and 30 seconds blind panic (no pun intended for my US contacts). This day at Blashford Lakes I was sitting hoping a kingfisher would turn up - it didn't. A grey heron flew in the distance and then it turned towards me and kept coming. Suddenly I realised it was going to come right over the hide/blind. I was set up for the kingfisher so I started changing the settings. Right in front of me it turned off to its left at a convenient distance for my glass. I took 10 shots, most in focus - surprise! I got rid of the exposure comp (for the kf's white spot) and managed to get the dof up for the distance/size of bird but I needed a higher ISO and shutter speed to catch the wing tips. Nearly! |
