This Galapagos Tortoise head portrait was photographed during a very light drizzle with the tripod-mounted Canon 800mm f\/5.6L IS lens and the EOS-1D MIV. ISO 400. Evaluative metering +2\/3 stop: 1\/20 sec. at f\/16. I used One-Shot AF after selecting a sensor that covered the eye. <\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n\n\n
