    Default Nazca Landing...

    This Nazca Booby (formerly Masked Booby) was photographed on my recent Galapagos Photo Cruise on Hood Island/Espanola at Punta Suarez, one of my favorite places on the planet. For the first time in five trips I had favorable winds blowing out to sea and cloudy conditions... Just great for flight and for landing birds...

    Canon 400mm f/4 IS DO lens handheld with the EOS-40D. ISO 640. Evaulative metering of the ocean +2/3 stop: 1/1000 sec. at f/4 set manually.

    Got rid of some birds (including one that merged with the tail of the landing bird) on the bottom of the frame with a variety of techniques including protect and clone, Quick Masking, and the Patch Tool. Check out the next Bulletin this coming Monday to see the original frame.
