steady

Wife and I took another weekend excursion. This time to
the north coast (CA) and spent yesterday in and around
Crescent City.
Late afternoon on a windy extremely chilly day I took
another shot at Battery Light. The DA 55~300 is a very light
non-internal focusing lens. When racked out to 300mm you
can't breath near it when shooting. A peek through the
viewfinder showed it to be vibrating continually, but took
11 shots (cable switch/2 sec delay) hoping for a moment's
quiet. The link is to the only shot that appears to have
been nearly vibration free. I was stubborn enough to not
want to go larger than f/6.7 (wanted some foreground rock
detail) nor higher than 200 ISO.
This taken just as the sun was sinking into the Pacific
through a thin blushing persimmon tinted atmosphere.
All comments welcome.
