White Heron 1 free photo download

Magnificent bird! | | Shot RAW (digital negative) with a Canon EOS Digtal Rebel XTi, and Canon 70-200mm f/4.0L USM lens, a B&W UV MRC (Multi Reflective Coated) Filter attached. | | My camera and lens were mounted on a Giottos MM 9180 5-Section Pro Monopod with a Giottos MH-1301 Pro Series II Ballhead with a MH-656 Arca Swiss Quick Release attached, using a remote shutter release (with mirror lockup) to avoid camera shake. | | Camera Settings: Aperture Priority, F-Stop: f/4.0, ISO Speed Rating: 100, Focal Length: 131.0mm (the upper limit of the "sweet spot" of my lens), Shutter Speed: 1/1000 sec. | | Image was manipulated using Adobe Photoshop CS2 with the Camera Raw v4.2 plug-in. | | Note: This photo was shot within what I call the "sweet zone" of my lens: 70 to 135mm, f/4.0 to f/11. | | Hope you like my "White Heron 1" (1 of maybe 4)
