Bald Eagles As Seen by Others

Today’s post features a few images captured by workshop attendees on my recent “Wintering Bald Eagles” workshop on the Mississippi River. I asked everyone to send me 3-4 of their favorite images they captured during the 3-day workshop and here is what I received.

As you can see, everyone saw beauty in action through their viewfinders! Another interesting fact is that all participants, as well as myself, were using Canon equipment. Typically, there will be a near-even mix of Canon and Nikon, but this worked out as a Canon workshop! :o)

And in the evenings, we worked at improving our editing skills in Lightroom and Photoshop, and tips/techniques on the sometimes harsh exposures and capturing birds-in-flight, in sharp detail. Given the great shooting conditions, the quality of birds available to us, and the fun we all had, I’ll likely lead another workshop on the Mississippi in early 2017 :o)

 

Photographic Equipment Used:

  • Canon Rebel bodies
  • Canon and Tamron telephoto lenses, 300mm maximum length
  • All Handheld, with IS “On”
  • ISO variable, depending on the current shooting conditions
  • Aperture setting variable, depending on current shooting conditions
  • Shutter speed variable, depending on camera shooting modes and current shooting conditions
