010 Great Cormorant 鸕茲鳥 Mai Po Nature Reserve 米埔自然保護區 28/2/2003 EOS-1v, EF600/4L Fuji Provia 400F [RHP III] Getting a good flight shot of the Cormorant proved to be a difficult task. The speed was swift to say the least. Black against a dark BG is even more a challenge. The shot was taken at MPNR yesterday morning. Fill flash was used. This bird was in breeding plumage - silver-white on head and neck with wings in bronze colors ... Best kk -------------- http://www.geocities.com/kkhui_001

KK, Nice shot! The white necked Cormorant looks more beautiful. Provia 400F is quite grainy, isn't it? Rgds Daniel

| Although the construction of the BB is extremely simple, I'd save the trouble of diy. It costs around $350- by mail order. Yes, the shot was made with Wimberley Head. Best kk -------------- http://www.geocities.com/kkhui_001
