p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Dutch waterbirds LPOV


It was some time ago I posted here and got a reminder from Christian not to forget fredmiranda forum :-)

so here some shots from a series I could make just one day before the water froze.

The sun was shining, it was windy and freezing -5 degrees and we had to lay flat for 6 hours just above the water.

1: tufted duck

The low angle really makes these stand out. Love that smew and the tufted duck.!! Don

Great job with the low point of view, certainly worth the effort.

When laying flat, what are you using to support the camera? Bean bag set up?

The low perspective is excellent!

Walter these are all just beautiful,

but if I was to make a top pick it's easy

# 4 is stunning to me

thanks all for the nice comments.

@jemkewl, I used indeed a beanbag for this and a anglefinder

Really nice low angle work here Walter... The conditions we endure to get our pics.

Excellent set, Walter.
Good to see your low angle work. Better stay off the ground for a while now.

Thanks all,

Indeed Kirk, can't be better but it was very cold in a very small hide didn't feel my legs at some point till the smew came above with the ruffe and then I forgot the cold for some time :-).

I did not forget but life is not always the way we want and having then other priorities David.

hahahaha, I cannot resist doing this. I think the lower you can get the better the shots getting Chris.
