Bald Eagle - Homer, Alaska
EOS 1Ds, 500mm, 2x, 1/2000, f/11, ISO 200 While in Homer we had one morning where the sun was burning through a fog and I kept seeing Eagles passing in front of the sun so I set-up to try to capture this. This was a shot not possible with the 10D due to 3 times as long of a shutter lag with it compared to the 1Ds. The trick was waiting for a bird to be the right distance between me and the sun so that it didn't appear too big or too little against the solar disk. The I had to follow the subject and trip the shutter the instant the sun entered the viewfinder so that the timing was right when the shutter curtain actually opened. Out of many attempts, I got one that worked out E.J. Peiker http://www.EJPhoto.com
