A few days in Florida

Just back from a few days in Florida with Daniel Field and Frank Mantlik. Our searches for the continuing (but sporadic) Key West Quail-Dove and American Flamingos were largely unsuccessful, but we did enjoy our time in the field. The highlight was a morning kayak down the Snake Bight Channel. Here are a few pics!

Photographs

After years of digiscoping I purchased a dSLR, the Canon 7D, in July 2011 along with the 400mm f5.6 prime lens. I upgraded to the 7D MarkII in September of 2016.
All of my shots on this website are taken with either the Canon 7D, 7D MkII or digiscoped with a Canon Powershot unless otherwise noted.
ALL PHOTOS are Copyright Nick Bonomo 2008-2017 unless otherwise noted.

Post-processing, when performed, is limited to minor exposure adjustments and sharpening. I sometimes do not have enough free time for this step and will post photos as-is. On several occasions I will not alter a photo if I feel that the change does not make the bird appear as it did in the field, for identification purposes. I currently shoot in jpeg only.
