Default Duckling
Our duck has hatched some new ducklings and I wanted to grab some shots of them. I used my 55-200mm lens and an SB-800 speedlight set on TTL. I fiddled with the shots in ACDSee Pro 3 a little to get them to my liking. What else could be done to get it to look better? Also, I was using AF-C focusing so that may be why the head is a little out of focus.
This one is ISO100 and 150mm, f number is unknown...probably around f/6 or so...

That is a good clear shot of the duckling. Very nice I love it when they are small and fuzzy.

BTW: I think this is a male Mallard.

I wouldn't change anything. It's great. I really love the blurred background.
