I am a beginner Photographer. Shooting with a Canon T2i and using a Canon EF 100-400 mm F/4.5-5.6 L IS USM lens for these shots. I live along the Mississippi and we get plenty of Eagles visiting during the winter to feed. I went out with my new lens to try to get some shots today and am looking for some feedback.
It was overcast today, I did shoot exclusively in manual mode but I did use AF for all my shots. I also stayed at ISO200, I was nervous to bump down to 100 with the cloud cover. It seemed like a lot of the shots I took came out soft. I was wondering if this is because I used a wide open aperture for all my shots? Should I bump the aperture down some maybe to f11? Also as I was walking a lot I did not use a tripod but I was able to lean against something for most of my shots.
Please any feedback is welcome. I want to learn how to get the perfect shot.
