Duck, Duck, Goose

in photography •  7 years ago 

Had a chance to take another student out yesterday for some fun in the park yesterday.

He really wanted to shoot birds so we wen to one of the local duck ponds at Beacon Hill Park in downtown Victoria. The weather was very nice and we even got a little bit of sun for a short period of time.

Capture images of local wildlife is a great way to test your skills a photographer and play with the setting on your camera, spot focusing, slow shutter speeds and understanding how close you can get to a subject are all part of developing your skills.

We had a great time in the park and with the ducks.

Didn't knew duck were so beautiful .
Which camera do you use ?

I'm shooting with both a Canon 5d MKIII and a Canon 6d.

really wonderful pictures and topic,good luck

Thank you. I appreciate your having a look.

Those pictures look amazing!
I always love to shoot wild life. I mean with a camera but I am far from skilled at it. Maybe one day I will learn to become better at them.
It always looks so easy to take a picture but it really is a journey!
Much respect for you and your student!

Thanks, it was a really enjoyable afternoon
