it's probably the same effect as in this image on the previous page:

btw, viewing images on a cell phone is probably not the best way to go.

anyways, one last one. didn't take a lot of shots today, but got a bunch of keepers. you can see the rain bouncing off the head of Sandy here:

NVM, those Eagle shots that you got are great! Some of your best work! Too bad that the back ground on the head shot is totally white, and not some other more interesting background. Otherwise, amazing stuff. Some of your best i've seen here!

Senna, looks like i should have stayed to play with some of your Nikon stuff! Rad shots too, looks like all the birds were modeling for you! How long did you stay for, and was it busy with other photographers while you were there?

Those owls were probably checking out the rodent stuck on the top of your Canon set-up :hotbaby:

Possibly Saturday, but I'm not sure yet.

european 01-26-2012 08:49 PM

Bring me a 300mm f2.8 VR pretty please and I'll go with you guys :) or else I'll go anyways with my 18-200. Sometimes I can get a decent one with 10000% crop :|

Senna4ever 01-26-2012 08:57 PM

No, I'll bring you a 400mm f2.8 VR. :)

european 01-26-2012 09:07 PM

:eek: That's too much for me! But thank you anyways :)
I might be able to get some handheld shots with the 300mm. I don't have a strong enough tripod to support the mega 400mm lens.

Boostslut 01-27-2012 02:15 PM

hahaha.. Anyways today was AWESOME at BB! Great action all around!

A quickie:

Right on! Awesome stuff! Decent weather all day so far and still nice outside this very minute. I'm stuck at home doing assignments and catching up on some new reading material.
When I get my 300mm f2.8 I'll be out there every chance I get!

Boostslut 01-27-2012 03:01 PM

Looking forward to that Euro! When is that happening? Some along with Senna sometime, he has some sexy Nikon toys for you it seems (take out "Nikon" and that doesn't sound right).

Another quickie while i wait for my lady to get ready.

"Fuck this shit, i'm outa here!"

I just saw this movie The Big Year, and loved the scenery in it and the animals, my gf asked me if "birding" was an actual thing, I offcourse nodded like I knew because a man knows everything... but I honestly have no idea... I know there's bird photography like you guys in here which looks awesome, but is that big year bird spotting stuff real ??

When I sell my body and soul for around 5200 dollars in order to purchase the lens :(
But once I get that lens.. its game time. Or should i say.... bird time :cool:

N.V.M. 01-27-2012 05:59 PM

does Nikon have anything comparable to the Canon 400mm f/5.6?

european 01-27-2012 06:05 PM

Nikon has a 400mm f/2.8 VR
Nikon also has a 200-400mm f/4 VR

Senna4ever 01-27-2012 06:18 PM

Is anyone going out tomorrow?

not really comparable to my $1400 lens. looks like birding ain't cheap for Nikon? i'd love a 2.8 400mm Canon, but this f/5.6 keeps me in the game in the meanwhile.

european 01-27-2012 07:24 PM

yea, those Nikkor lenses are expensive.
If its not raining much tomorrow I'll come out to BB and Reifel after that.
