A garza blanca (Ardea
alba) touring by Zicatela beach. I somewhat lucked out by closing up the aperture just before I
shot, which is something I should do more. I think I will set a new custom setting just for
shooting birds in the sky with a lower ISO to reduce noise, and a high f-stop to enhance field depth
and reduce mis-focus. That way, I can switch quickly, and the only thing I may have to compensate
for is a higher exposure for dark birds
