Birding with my EF 70-200mm f4L

Been to Australia at 2010 to visit my bro who was staying there for good. Well... it was a quiet little place called Thornlie in Perth (Western Australia). Went to a pond and had quite a time shooting photos of some ducks and water fowls.

ISO: 400, S: 1/500, A: f/5.6

ISO: 400, S: 1/250, A: f/6.7

ISO: 400, S: 1/750, A: f/5.6

It is a pretty nice photoshooting session... I feel that I could have done better if I was to be at eye level with the ducks and fowls... maybe lying on the ground would have helped.

ISO: 400, S: 1/500, A: f/5.6

This photo would have been better if the Aperture is much smaller... then all of the ducks will be in focus, rather than the two infront.

Big fat black chicken (crow)... she was perched safely on the branch way above me... I just had to take some photos of her. Pretty cool... I mean the weather... it was near winter when we visited Australia.

Then we go Fremantle for some seafood and managed to shoot some photos of the seagulls.

I kind of like this pic alot... the composition works for me. I do not put that seagull right in the middle of the frame and instead threw it to the side... and also exposing some of the shadow. It is a pretty nice photo.

It is a pretty nice experience in Australia and I will be going there again... this time round I will try landscaping shots. I think it can be very nice too.
