Thanks for taking a look guys and for your positive comments. Appreciate it.
geoffs I use digital zoom all the time, I pretty much ignore the line between optical and digital and just use it all as zoom. I don't notice any difference in the pictures where I use optical and crop it up or just use digital. For some odd reason my digital shots seem to be more clear since I started using the c-210. normcar thanks very much for your kind remarks. Since a lot of my motivation for bird photography comes from your photo of the avocet with his wings up getting a drink, your comments mean a lot to me. Yes I used the burst mode. The first shot of the bird with the fish speared is a split second after it was pulled from the water, you can still see stuff dripping off it. The bird sat there with its neck outstretched and its head a couple inches off the water for about 30 seconds, then wham he dove and had that fish out of the water before I could snap a photo. The second shot, where the bird is swallowing the bird was on burst mode as well. When the bird tossed the fish in the air a stilt buzzed in and tried to catch it in the air away from the heron. I caught it all in a photo but it ispretty blurry so I did not post, bummer. This is the 3rd shot of the burst. I like the challenge, I look forward to seeing some "catch" shots with those big lenses. Ithink it will take some doing to get shots of a heron catching a fish bigger than this one however. |
