This article shares a small selection of quick shots from 6 stops, captured during a day out with another photographer who was visiting my local area. While I had some camera gear with me, my main objective wasn’t to capture a lot of photographs, but rather serve as an area guide, and to identify some image opportunities.
All of the images featured in this article were captured handheld, and are displayed in the order in which they were created during our photography session that day.
This short article features images of swallows at Irving Eco-Centre (La Dune de Bouctouche) located in Saint-Edouard-de-Kent, New Brunswick. These photographs were captured in early May during a trip my wife and I made out to the East Coast of Canada to visit family and friends.

Recently I had the opportunity to capture some handheld images at Bird Kingdom with the M.Zuiko 100-400 mm f/5-6.3 IS zoom. I haven’t used this lens for a while as my M.Zuiko 150-600 mm f/5-6.3 IS has become my ‘go to’ birding lens.
Observation skills are fundamental to all photographers, and are especially important to tune up prior to the bird spring migration season. Many of our best images stem from us being very aware of the environment around us.
This article features a selection of handheld photographs of ducks in flight captured at 1200 mm efov (equivalent field-of-view) with the M.Zuiko 150-600 mm f/5-6.3 IS zoom lens.
On Sunday this past weekend I had the chance for a February practice session, photographing birds-in-flight at a local frozen-over harbour. Most of the birds were ducks and geese, along with a few gulls.
