Paul Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 This guy poped up about 2 feet from my boat and scared the [PoorWordUsage] out of me, of course the camera was safley secured in a water proof case at that moment in time. I got it ready and follwed him around till I got a couple of shots. Canon XTI, 100-400, iso 400, 1/350 sec at f13. Shot at 400MM with my fishing net for a monopod.

Paul Posted May 13, 2008 Author Share Posted May 13, 2008 Thanks everyone for the compliments. I would love to say it was all skill but I think it was about 70% luck attached to some good equipment. I am pretty happy with the shot myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
