Ah, you got a Porcupine ... I have yet to get a picture of one.

Hmm, I think your AF is a little off ... does your camera have micro adjustment ... and/or needs cleaning of the lens.

Unfortunately no micro adjustment on the Rebel series. Once he gets my T5I it will be much better. The 400mm is almost a perfect match for it.

and there is a branch in the way

 

[dxqcanada3 3]

Yeah, I noticed that ... just seems like the other shots could be more in focus, so I thought there might be something else affecting the shot.

i was a f 5.6 on a very sunny day so the exposure was way to high had to lower it a lot

 

[dxqcanada3 3]

Hmm, I would have thought your Canon lens would be pretty good wide open ... you may want to keep your aperture at f8, especially if you got a lot of light.
For some reason a couple of the shots look "smudgey" (is that a real word?) so was just checking to see if the lens was clean.

Thanks

I thought so from what your dad said, maybe you guys can guide us through there ... we have never been able to really get a good look through it, even though we have tried to get there a number of times.

 

[zombiesniper150 15]

Sure. We mainly stay on the main 2 roads but we'll show you what we know.
P.S. Should be a very short class. lol

 

[dxqcanada3 3]

Hmm, I thought you guys had some secret spot off the beaten path ... really, side of the road ?
Ummm, what road you talk'n bout Willis ?

 

[zombiesniper150 15]

McKinnon Rd & 2nd Concession just out of Angus.
No secret sauce here. Just have a great place to go out and a bit of luck.
