Yet not a hair on him. All feathers. Misnomer for sure.

Agreed, his name should be Wade

Nice shot. What shutter speed did you use, any ND filters?
1stQ@feddit.org · 3 pts · 112d
400mm, iso 400, f6.3, 1/6 s, no ND filters since it was cloudy. He held still nicely so I was able to experiment a bit. 1/3s worked too, but I couldn't freehand a longer exposure.

1/6s handheld is pretty wild especially at 400mm. Good stuff.

Well, I braced it against a railing. Plus the lense and the camera are stabilising. So not all the way freehanded. 😅
