A day for the birds.
A day for the birds.
It was a fine sunny winter’s day, 17 C0. Yes! That’s a fine winter’s day here in Tasmania/Australia although 03/June is only the third day of winter; it doesn’t get better than that. I had some spare time on my hand and decided to go to a small lake at the outskirts of town Bird shooting, action Herons are action Heroes! It seems to be the ‘IN thing’ to shoot a Heron eating a fish, so there was my self-imposed brief.

Nikon 18-200mm VR II lens
I did not have a tripod with me when I went trout fishing yesterday but coming home to the boat ramp, the last boat came to shore as the sky presented itself in beautiful colour. I put my Nikon D300 on a solid tree stump base but hand held it.
This picture was taken in 'P' mod… Continue

Lee said… - Hi Helmit, i`m going to have to nickname you `The Artist` after your dramatic interpretation of my photo. I agree with you, the harbour wall and boat are a distraction. It was an unusual Saturday Morning, in one of my favourite seaside resorts of Bridlington, on the east coast of England. It was taken on the 8th of September 2007.
I have been visiting this resort since a child but this particular morning i have never seen the sea so calm and the sky so bright.
I tried my best to get the exposure true to the real scene.
It was a very bright sky and i wanted to try and capture the brilliant whiteness of it but my camera at the time wanted to underexpose.
As i recall i think i did increase the brightness level in post production. As far as i can remember my photo is near to what my human eye saw.
I hope you enjoyed creating your `Masterpiece!`
I am certainly open to comments and ideas from my fellow buddies in photography. Cheers.
