Patricia Gibson replied
I shot this last year back when I was still shooting partially on ‘idiot mode’ this was shot with my Canon 450D (AKA rebel) 18-200 IS lens@200mm, ISO 100 , exposure 1/320s at F8. I took three images of this pelican and this one was the best. Its as is from the camera but I was tempted to play with it a little at first but I left it alone!!
I had no flash gun. This was a very bright morning just after sunrise but it was also a little hazy and this took care of the direct sunlight but and I used the pole to block some of the reflection of the sun in the water so this was the result. Hastings and Western Port Bay has the most amazing sunrises. I’ve just started a new group on RB dedicated to Western Port Bay ”://www.redbubble.com/groups/western-port-bay-and-french-island”: you can check it out if you like! Thank you so much for your comments : ) Patricia
