in flight
An interesting lighting condition in late afternoon. Shooting to a particular spot which was bathed in light. Drove the background to nearly black as if i had used flash.
The sparrow project is an attempt to improve my bird story telling along with honing eye hand/AF coordination skills using a common subject readily available. The subjects must be in motion as a prerequisite since shooting ducks in a barrel is just no sport at all.
I was spurred into the project due to my complete dissatisfaction of prior attempts while on a trip to Tanzania. Learning the delicate balance between shutter speed, proper long lens techniques, iso settings and AF modes is a challenge for something just slightly slower than a speeding bullet.
This will be ongoing to support my next African adventure later this year.
