Technical Details

This is a scene in Baxter State Park in northern Maine that I captured back in 2006 during a weekend filled with moose!  The weather was pouring rain most of the time and densely overcast on this day.  I wound up shooting this at 1/40 sec, f/5.6 at 800 ISO (handheld).

The camera was a Canon EOS 1D MkII with a Sigma 50-500mm lens attached (it’s a beast!).

    Shot at 50mm or zoomed?
    Where are the moose?

      Thank you. It certainly felt that way when I was there.

    That quote was in my Daily Calm book weeks ago. Been chewing on it all this time.

      Don’t chew, just be. 🙂
