Oriole Blackbird

Image # 1D2_05605

Amazon River

 

Canon 100-400L/f4.5-5.6 IS and 1.4x II Teleconverter at 560 mm

ISO 1250, f/8, 1/640 second

Manual Exposure

Handheld (possibly with Monopod)

These were brilliantly colored birds, another new species for me.  The conditions at the time were a bit overcast, and since I was starting at f/8 with the 100-400 Lens and 1.4x teleconverter, I often had to bump up ISO to get adequate shutter speeds.
