May I inquire as to your camera setup? |
Thanks. The camera body is a Canon EOS 5D. The lens for the bird/wildlife photos is a Canon EF 100-400 mm zoom; the lens for the scenic vistas is a Canon EF 17-40 mm zoom. I use a monopod to stabilize the camera and long lens; this doubles as a walking stick in rough terrain!
If you want to see some really gorgeous photos of California (and other) wildlife (including the kite photo that I use as my avatar here), check out my friend Mark Chappell's site. Mark is a biology professor at UC-Riverside; he really could make a living with his photography!
