17 February 2008

Vedan Thangal Bird Sanctuary, Near Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India

Canon EF 500mm f/4L IS on Canon 1D Mark III
ISO 200, 1/800 @ f8, Manual Exposure using Sekonic L308s Lightmeter

This was photographed from the watch tower at the sanctuary. I enjoyed shooting these birds coming into roost. The lighting was perfect and so was the location.
