p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · It's not always glamorous for our national bird!


We've had some rainy weather lately along Turnagain Arm in Alaska. I was out plinking with a 1D MK4 that I purchased recently on the FM B&S board, and happened across this guy near the Twenty-Mile River, enduring the rain. He looked absolutely miserable.







BTW, still learning the traits of the camera. Those above were shot at ISO 640. It was a heavily overcast and gray day, so upped the ISO for shutter speed while shooting in aperture priority. I noticed the slightest of noise appearing, so also trying to solicit any input of ISO characteristics for this model. If you have a MK4, how far will you comfortably push yours?

Thanks for any input.

Fine shots! Clearly the light was very poor ..... I think you did a stellar job of exposing these.

These are effective images. The eagle does look bedraggled and uncomfortable. Well done.

David, K, Ron, Ted, Conrad, K, Birdie, and Don, thanks so much. As dreary as it was I considered it a treat to watch this fella. Actually I wished I had more time as it looked like it was going to start raining harder and would have loved to capture some large drops of water dripping from that hooked beak!

These are really lovely and unique images. I really enjoyed these because theyre beautiful but not the typical BE images. Great work!
