I\'m fairly knowledgeable as to what gear can do the job. However, I\'d like to know how you\'ve used gear to obtain some of your remarkable Bald Eagle shots, and hopefully ask you to shoe some samples of the outcome. My assortment of gear as seen in my profile I think is acceptable but to optimize my experience, I know something a bit longer than 300L + 1.4X might be desirable, then again, that\'s all I\'ve got for longest shooting.
I\'ve also posted a thread in Member Meetings for the possible of a member meet and outing to a local \"hotspot\" for the lack of better terminology. I\'m very new to the area, and maybe some can find the time on a day to get out and have a Bald Eagle Watch and Photograph outing. I\'ve only in my few years of shooting had one encounter and opportunity to capture one of these \"wild\" magnificent birds on camera. I\'d like many more!!! Here\'s a link to my post on the other board also...
Here\'s my only encounter, and 1 of 3 shots I\'ve been able to get... What I\'d love to see/read are some of your images, the gear used (Camera, Lens/Lens + TC, Tripod/Mono - Support w/ Head, Flash/Better Beamer...etc.) And possibly the location of the country/world the image was taken, if you can remember.
Thanks!!!
