1302_1187 Northern Pintail
Last shot from Esquimalt Lagoon, a Northern Pintail flying by, fast and low. Honesty, I have no idea how I got this in focus. Just quick reaction time and lots of luck; I usually miss these shots. I was using a D800 body - only 4 fps, but it was Nikon's first large sensor, high dynamic range camera and the quality upgrade from my previous Nikon bodies was dramatic.
Tomorrow, on to a new location.
