One of my photographic goals or "missions" has been to get a shot of a Loon on Galway Lake in Saratoga County. I am moderately pleased with this shot considering it was taken with a 30 year old manual focus lens and was shot hand held from a row boat.
Loons are amazing birds. From the speed they can swim under water, to their clumsiness in taking off in flight. It is a treat to be able to watch them and especially listen to them.
One other thing that I have learned from today's excursion is that I need a lens with a longer reach!
This is a lovely shot of the loon, I love the light reflecting on him. I hope you get to see some Loon babies!
