Sunset  Above the Mississippi

Uploaded: January 24, 2014

Description

1/5sec @ f/10, ISO 50, Nikkor 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6 @ 220mm. In-camera blur, handheld.
When it became too dark to shoot eagles, we traveled high above LeClaire,Iowa to Scout Park. This historic part of LeClaire dates back to 1834 and features century old oak trees and tremendous scenic overlooks of the Mississippi River. Had fun shooting blurs trying to capture the changing colors of a superb sunset.
