We received several BIF shots lately – take a look:
Docshaf watched this juvenile Bald Eagle circle around looking for prey and got his shot as it passed by. He was able to stop action using a shutter speed of 1/1600th of a second.
When Rebecca Bowater was onboard a ship in rough waters somewhere between South Georgia Island and Antarctica she managed to snap this photograph of a White-chinned Petrel in the air. According to her EXIF settings the camera’s aperture was set to ƒ11 (gives a larger depth-of-field) and a shutter speed of 1/3000th to stop action. Between the two she captured a lot of detail on this dark bird in the gray sky – well done!
Avneet Kaur’s shot of a Berylline Hummingbird didn’t contain EXIF data but in order to stop action for a hummingbird you have to be at 1/2000th of a second – preferably more.
