Circle B Bar Reserve – Red Shouldered Hawk

Circle B Bar Reserve, originally uploaded by madcalabrian.

I keep finding more keepers… Here goes another one. The 100-400 is always a little soft when I rely on autofocus and my best results are if I am in full manual (exposure) and manually focusing and not relying on auto focus. It’s just such a pain!

This photo was taken in Lakeland Florida

A friend and fellow photographer, Klaus J. Peter, passed away several months ago. I attending his memorial at Circle B Bar Reserve in Lakeland Florida. There were 50+ friends who made it and those who were photographers had a photowalk most of the day. It was an amazing way to celebrate his life.
