Photographer's Note
揊lying over ice� is the name of this photo taken in Bowring Park today. One of my favorite photo challenges is to catch birds in flight. This is one of my attempts. This beautiful Pintail Duck, the greyhounds of birds, is trying to land in a patch of water next to the ice.
Some photos details include,
-Shot in action mode
-shutter speed 1/2000
-F-stop 5.6
-ISO 400
-Focal length 180 mm.
PS: he had a very successful landing, next post.
