Amazing capture- I agree, I have an old film photo of Tilikum with some great dismount splashes.

This is so perfectly staged, I love how the focus is on Corky and solely Corky. Plus that water is to die for, amazing job.

Love to the water, although I think most time catching it is incidental at least in my case. XD

Thanks! Oh trust me it is for me too. I was just going through my pics and I saw this and surprised myself. It seems whenever I actually try and capture water I fail

I focus on the whale, 'cause if you focus on the water then you miss the whale! XD

Yay for Corky! The water in this is absolutely fantastic; especially over the left pectoral, you caught it just at the right time.

Great Capture Mate!

Terrific focus too... I often unfortunately grab focus on a bead of water, and have the subject slightly out of focus...

Good Job.

Thanks!! XD Aw what type of camera do you have?

xfuzvl In reply to loveforRuka [2006-10-02 05:43:28 +0000 UTC]

Im using a Nikon D70s..

Its more because of my lense that i catch focus on the wron object, most of the time for shooting animals, im using my sigma 170-500mm lense, which can be very hard to steady, and at 500mm nearly impossible to use without a tripod, or at least a monopod...

loveforRuka In reply to xfuzvl [2006-10-02 06:24:20 +0000 UTC]

Oh, hmm. I think if my camera decided to do something like that I'd shake it till it died. Sounds like focal range is too tight or your auto focus is being dumb. lol like I know anything, just thought I'd throw that out there.
