Managed to capture this at Albert Lake Park at about 4pm while having some time out after unpacking my shipment from Singapore.

D70 + AFS 300F4 + TC1.4X + SB800 + Flash extender. Manual focus and exposure, fill flash and handheld. The bugger flew away after I setup my tripod.

regards,

Arthur

Good that you got a shot before it flew away. Looks like you did ok without the tripod. Really nice Arthur.

Hi Marvin and Nicole.

thanks. I was lucky and was relying on the flash for proper exposure. There were a pair but i could not spot the other one.

regards,

Arthur

good shot... cockies are damn hard to expose right, to much white!

Hi

Thanks. Silver Gull is worst or just as bad when it comes to exposure.
