New Kayak

Today I tried out the new Hobie Revolution kayak.  It comes with a foot drive and it will be my new platform for wildlife photography.  The foot drive works great and allows your hands to be free for taking photographs.  Felton and I paddled from Pepper Park over to the Fish House restaurant in Fort Pierce for lunch.  Here are a few photos from the day.

The dance of the pelican, with seagulls.

The pelican was taken with a Nikon D90, Nikor 58-200mm zoom, at 200mm, shutter priority @ 1/1250 sec., f/5.6, ISO-200. High shutter speed to stop the motion.

In the next photo, I was trying to blur the motion of the Blue Heron's wings on takeoff, so I used all of the same settings as above except a shutter speed of 1/320 sec.:

Great Blue Heron at liftoff.

My brother, Felton, with the Cat he covets in the background.

This last photo was taken coming out of the Harbortown Marina in Ft. Pierce. Felton would like to have the Catamaran "Flyer" in the background.
