p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Conowingo Comorant Catfish Combat


A short series of photos, all somewhat suboptimal, of Comorant fighting over a catfish at the Conowingo Dam tailrace in Maryland USA.

I went to practice and maybe see some eagles. No real luck, but some good practice.

I think I need to push up my SS a bit. These were all at 1/2000 f6.3 with plenty of room to go to a shorter duration shutter speed and even down to f8.

D500, 300 2.8 VR II, 2X TC, Tripod

Anyway, I had fun, and I spoke with some other dudes snapping critters there.

I sort of know what I'm doing wrong, but any pointers are welcome. I need to get sharper before going after some real keepers.

The first 3 are quite good James. If you could dig a bit of shadow detail out of the third it would be super
