telyt Posted December 27, 2007 Share #1 Posted December 27, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) Last weekend was the high tide of the winter season so I visited a salt-water marsh in the San Francisco area to see what the tide flushed out. The rails (Virginia, Black, Sora and Clapper) are the stars of the show. This is the Clapper Rail: Other birds were the Brown Pelican Black-necked Stilt continues on next post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

echorec Posted December 27, 2007 Share #3 Posted December 27, 2007 Really excellent all of them. #2 in your first post is my favourite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Likaleica Posted December 27, 2007 Share #4 Posted December 27, 2007 I like the first one best, although all are good. Too bad that shadow cut right across his pupil! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Likaleica Posted December 27, 2007 Share #5 Posted December 27, 2007 Doug, it continues to amaze me that you can get such sharp pictures without a tripod. Your photos are generally sharper than most image stabilized shots taken with camera mounted on a heavy tripod. Great technique! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
psquared Posted December 27, 2007 Share #6 Posted December 27, 2007 Doug, Excellent pictures as usual. My favorite is #1 also for the light and details. Peter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuny Posted December 27, 2007 Share #7 Posted December 27, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) Doug - I really wish we could see your posts more frequently. Excellent series, as alwyas, with spot-on focus, framing, exposure, I've never seen a suft scoter (scooter?) before. Delightful bird. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
topoxforddoc Posted December 27, 2007 Share #8 Posted December 27, 2007 Doug, No 1 is my favourite too. There's that slight mystery as it peeps out at you through the rushes. Best wishes, Charlie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

luigi bertolotti Posted December 28, 2007 Share #11 Posted December 28, 2007 All fantastic shots... the third of the first series has a fascinating reflection on water... and the soft colors make you wonder if it's a BW pic... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
