    Default Candid Camera

    I took my telephoto with me fishing and got some pictures of fish feeding.









    On this one, the mayfly that is out of focus was what the fish went after, but the mayfly flew away.



    And one that my dad caught.

    Nice shots, did you take them with your 200mm lens? What shutter speeds did you have to use to "freeze" the fish and the water droplets?

    I've never seen anything like those pictures. That is totally amazing.

    Bolden your photographic skills have really been a pleasure to watch with your growth. You have a good eye for composition. You tell a fine story with the image. Technically you've been expanding with camera and subject. Well done buddy!

    By the way, the two waterscapes with the etheral "floating stream" technique are stunning shots. Nicely crafted.
    Cheers, Ken :P
    Love the challenge...What try? No try. Just do!

    I was using my 300mm f/4 with a 1.4 tc. These were shot at f/5.6, iso 400, 1/1000 sec. Even with that shutter speed they weren't completely crisp, but for my first time i was happy.

    I love that first one , you need to get that blow up , 16 x24 would be awesome .
    I would love to, but it is cropped so much it would not stand up too well to that print size. I was pretty close to the fish, but i still had to severely crop every shot. Hopefully next time i will somehow get closer so i don't have to crop too much.


    Thanks everyone for your comments.
