Paul Jones Floe Edge Photographer

Huge thanks to fellow floe edge traveler David Henley for securing this great image. Very, very much appreciated.

 

A few things.

 

First, how about that power stance!

 

Also, camouflage. I didn't have any as a child, now that I am older - time to go crazy. I even got white winter camo tape to wrap on the monopod (only effective when the legs are not deployed).

 

Finally, is that dark line of smoke the soul of a bird being sucked into the camera? Or is it the physical manifestation of my fanatical dedication to eider photography emanating from the lens?

 

Anyway, this is my current wildlife set up, a Canon EOS-1D X Mark II attached to an EF+1.4x III teleconverter attached to a EF600mm f/4L IS III lens attached to a Benro DJ90 tilt head attached to a Manfrotto 679B Monopod. The camera and lens are wrapped in a Goretex shell from LensCoat.
