I am out of here. Brown Pelican [Contest Winner Picks May 2014]
Uploaded: May 05, 2014 15:02:27 | Entered: May 05, 2014 15:11:01
This will likely be my last post until the end of May. Off to Russia for 3 weeks tomorrow. Taken with the travel camera I will take with me the Canon Powershot SX50HS that has optical zoom from 24mm to 1200mm and is very light $400. Did not want to take the heavy EOS 1D Mark IV or 5D with all the heavy lens. Sorry I have not been able to comment recently very busy packing, planing and still working. I will catch up when I return. I hope to get some good photos to share. Emile.
Exif: F Number: 8, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/2000 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 1600, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 14.65 mm, Model: Canon PowerShot SX50 HS

When you can get these kind of details of an inflight bird, why take another camera. What amazing details you bring out here and I love the colors of the bird against that pretty sky.
