Coming to Get Ya'

Uploaded: January 30, 2008

Description

This photo is to show dominance by a single subject. The duck was coming straight at me in a very defiant manner as if to say "I am gonna get ya'..." I managed to keep some space on the right to give it some breathing room and a space to "swim" towards. Unfortunately, the snow white color of the duck's feathers blew the highlights and overexposed the photo. I did not use any filters. I did manage to get the catchlight from the sun on its eyes.

Exif: F Number: 7.1, Exposure Bias Value: 0.67, ExposureTime: 10/5000 seconds, Flash: did not fire., ISO: 100, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 500.00 mm, Model: NIKON D80
