A really really tough shot to get. I really like this bufflehead-in-flight shot considering how small these guys are and how fast they fly. Sharp, great light, clean background and beautiful colors, there isn't anything to complain or critique.

As always exceptional quality, beautiful details and colors! Has to be seen large! Great timing Monte! It's not easy to photograph these fast little guys. Best regards, Linh Dinh

Excellent photo. I'd like to know how to shoot such a fast little duck like this and swing a 500mm lens with this kind of accuracy. And to top it off, the lighting is nearly perfect with the head colors just popping. 7/7

This is exceptional, Monte, as I would expect! These guys are super fast...congratulations on a great capture!

7/7

And, did you hand hold that 500 mm or use a tripod? Nice lens:-)

Best regards,

Monte, when the subject arises again in the Nikon forum about shooting with long lenses, handheld, will you please put this shot up as an example that it is very possible for a photographer with steady hands to accomplish this. Bravo, Monte!
