I decided to venture out today and try out the camera. It was a cold, but sunny day so I headed to Warrior's Path State Park in search of geese!
I guess you'd call this your basic beginner's shot of "ducks on the pond", but I wanted to get up close and personal so I waited for them to come out of the water.
The sun was behind them so I'm not getting much detail of their faces. I decided to focus on one bird.
I like the detail of the feathers in these, but I still want to see the face. I decided to try the tip I read about shooting "part of the object". Here's the results.
I love the grass in his mouth.
I finally got a shot of a goose facing the sun. Honk!
I like this last one because of the eye staring at me, the curve of his neck and the pattern of the feathers on his back. Do you have a favorite? Maybe you can give me gentle advice or encouragement. Got any tips to share? I'd appreciate your feedback, especially if you're a photographer, too.
