Weekly View


Black-Headed Grossbeak - The Grossbeak was shot in the front yard of our Eagle Cliff cabin with Kodak High Definition ISO 200 film in late afternoon light.  Exposure of about 1/1500th @ f4 with a tripod.  Taken in early July 2003 with a 180mm f2.8 lens.  It probably took about 90 minutes of patience before this particular bird felt safe enough to move into range.  I have a few closer, but liked the light, expression, and composition more in this one.
