These are fantastic Woody! How are you able to get so close? Are you using a teleconverter? The ducks at our local lake take off as soon as you get anywhere near. Sometimes when I get out of the car.

Well, he's using a D500, so that is a 750mm equivalent. It's rather like having a 1.5 converter, without having to use one. Or losing a stop.

Thanks, Robin. No TC, but a lot of time standing or sitting quietly. The ducks move away when I arrive, but slowly get used to me. There are enough people in the area that hey are somewhat used to human presence, too.

Guess I need more patience and probably need to go alone or go with someone with a lot of patience.

Well before sunrise this morning. Mom returning to the nest. 1/8 sec hand held and braced against car door. 36,000 ISO. Lightroom denoise and a little more sharpening than usual. Came out okay. Way better than the good old days when I would push process Tri-X Pan to 1600 and get salt and pepper results. :)
