On Sunday, we went to explore this large swamp area, which is a nature reserve so that normally you can only walk into it as far as the watch tower, but no further.
So I tried to zoom in onto the cranes of which there were many far, far away (they were no more but tiny dots to my eyes).
I have come to the conclusion that a normal 300mm lens is too little ...
Two new arrivals
The osprey causing a bit of commotion among the cranes (can you spot it? I would never have seen it with my eyes only!)
Thankfully this Canada goose flew across the water a bit closer to where I was than where the cranes were put:
Still: far from being a "close-up" (and this is a 70% crop!!!)
Hmmmmmmmmmm! :scratch:
Something must change in my equipment bag, I think!
Ah! And the sun was right against me, shining out of a hazy sky. Didn't make things easier...
