This frigatebird image was created with the Canon 70-200mm f/4L IS lens (handheld at 200mm) with the Canon EOS-50D. ISO 400. Evaluative metering +2/3 stop: 1/4000 sec. at f/5.6. Deciding to keep the image above was a no-brainer. The bird was perfectly juxtaposed to the imaging sensor. It is diagonally oriented in the in the frame. [...] This Blue-footed Booby image was created from a panga with the handheld Canon 400mm f/4 IS DO lens. ISO 400. Evaluative metering at zero: 1/1600 sec. at f/6.3. When working from any type of water craft, IS and VR lenses are extremely useful; they can help you produce sharp images even when the [...] These braying, displaying Galapagos Penguins were photographed with the handheld Canon 400mm IS DO lens and the EOS-1D MIII body. ISO 400. Evaluative metering +2/3 stop off the water set manually: 1/1600 sec. at f/6.3. On my Galapagos trips, we do lots of photography from the pangas (Zodiacs). The 400 DO (diffractive optical elements) [...] When we set sail in the pitch dark from Gibsonton on the Hooptie Deux we could tell that it was a bit foggy. When we got out to Alafia, it was quite foggy. When things are not great, do not fall into the habit of wishing things were better. Think outside the box and [...] When attempting to photograph erratic flight or action, I will often choose AAFPS, All AutoFocus Points Selected as in most cases this make it easier to track the bird or to maintain focus on two birds that are interacting. On my last trip with James Shadle on the Hooptie Deux, we were headed back [...] On Friday afternoon I enjoyed some more cloudy weather and before my walk and again had a few good chances with one of the local Ospreys. I have been trying to use ISO 8oo more with my 50D to check out the noise. I am finding that the noise is best controlled by pushing [...] The cloudy, breezy afternoon weather here of late has been great for my three mile daily walk. In addition, it has made for some good photgraphic opportunities. (I love white skies.) There are more Ospreys down by the lake than in recent years and many have been carrying moss for their nests.
