Many, many years ago when stationed on a submarine, we used to practice “submarine showers” which were a water saving idea from the pre-nuclear days. I thought I took fast showers, but this little Willow Flycatcher is in a league of its own. I still haven’t gotten a decent image of it in the water, but at the 7DII’s maximum frame rate of 10 fps, I do have one blurry sequence. It’s in the water for 1 frame. To the eye, it’s as if it bounces off, but as you can see, it does get quite wet. It will repeat multiple times before it’s satisfied.
What technical feedback would you like if any?
Not a lot done to this one. Just a couple of poo spots cleaned up, a slight crop and minor adjustments to the bird to make it pop a bit more.
Any comments welcome.
What artistic feedback would you like if any?
Anything you note.
Pertinent technical details or techniques:
