It is late in the season but I decided to take a chance and visit the Lake Verret area near Morgan City in Louisiana to see and photograph eagles. I had never photographed birds from a boat before, so I had no idea how difficult it was!!!! The constant motion of the wakes makes it impossible for me to use a tripod and keep the birds in focus. I used a Nikon 200-400 with 1.4TC on a D7100. I set up manual mode, with the f-stop to 8, and kept the shutter speed high (1/1000 to 1/1650) with auto ISO.
Here are two shots that were semi decent. They are cropped quite a lot.
Your comments are always welcome. Thank you for your time.
