Birds in Nature - images of wild birds by Richard Ditch |
Subject: Least Sandpiper (Calidris
minutilla)
Place: Chandler, AZ, USA
Date: September 2003
Equipment: Nikon N90S, Nikkor AF-S 300/2.8 & TC20E (= 600/5.6),
monopod from car
Film: Fuji Sensia 100
Exposure: Aperture priority matrix metered
Scan: Minolta Dimage, 70% of frame
Commentary: Least Sandpipers are a common migrant in AZ, but
finding suitable places to photograph them is a challenge. We have no
shore, so sandpipers must be found and photographed at places like
this sewage treatment facility.
