  • Switched to another new lens, Sigma 70-200/2.8 OS. I had a particular subject in mind today, but when I got close to it, I saw some geese. Since I now had 200mm (x1.6) at my disposal, I took out the camera to see if I could make anything out of the geese but then I noticed these mallards…

  • Same beach, with sun. It was incredibly hard to create any contrast in the picture yesterday, I really had to process it hard in LR and the pattern still doesn’t come out. What a difference the sun makes.
