This blast-off blur was created at Bosque del Apache NWR in San Antonio, NM with the Canon EF 70-200mm f\/2.8L IS II USM Telephoto Zoom Lens<\/a>, the Canon 2x EF Extender III (Teleconverter)<\/a> (hand held at 215mm), and the Canon EOS 5D Mark III Digital Camera (Body Only) w\/FREE Bonus Item – $145.83 Value! [expires soon]!<\/a> ISO 50. Evaluative metering at zero: 1\/13 sec. at f\/22 in Manual mode. Central sensor Surround\/AI Servo\/Rear Focus AF and re-compose. Click here<\/a> if you missed the Rear Focus Tutorial. Click on the image to see the spectacular larger version. <\/p>\n

I achieved the slow shutter speed by having the Hoya 77mm Warming Circular Polarizer Glass Filter<\/a> set to dark and screwed onto the front of my 70-200 II. See below for details on “set to dark.” <\/p>\n

Here I moved the lens down a bit while panning with the flock to create the unusual blurred effect. <\/p>\n
