Break in the November Weather

Late fall and winter is the best time to hike a mountain trail, especially when the sun breaks through as you approach the summit. This view is about a minute from the top of Mount Erskine on Salt Spring Island.

The Salt Spring Photo of the Day has been to Erskine before. By entering “erskine” in the search box you find six other posts.

Cameron, the wonder Westie and I usually take the slow easy way up and the more direct, but steeper way down.

Fulford Ferry

7:30 a.m. arriving for the second ferry of the day…

It’s November and that weather happens. Even on Salt Spring.

Crow Mid Flight
The way this crow seems to be hovering in place reminds me of a Harrier Jump Jet.
An unusual photo I think.

Occasionally someone reminds me to add the camera info as a learning aid. Occasionally I remember. This was a dull, dark and grey day (if anyone needs more dull, dark and grey days just head to BC’s west coast in November). I had on a 300 f/2.8 lens which I set to f/3.5 for a tiny bit more depth of field and sharpness. The 300 at this aperture really helps isolate the main item in the photo. The Canon EOS-1D X has no problem in low light and could track the movement of the bird without difficulty. Five frames were shot in half a second (I thought the crow was coming in for a landing). The shutter speed was kept high to freeze the motion of the bird in flight. A small amount of cropping (of the float top right) helps showcase the crow.

photo info: ISO 1600,  f/3.5,  1/2500 sec,  300mm
