Advanced Location

As part of my final year at college we have to complete three 'advanced' location photography assignments, producing three images for each assignment. For one I decided to do birds at Linlithgow Loch in action. Here are some of my results. All were shot using my 300mm F2.8 Vr lens and a D200. The Goldeneye's were made using high speed flash and a flash X-tender.


Male Goldeneye




Black Headed Gull








Greylag Goose


Immature Common Gull


Immature Herring Gull

Re: Advanced Location

nice shots. I particularly like the ones where the water drops have been frozen such as the Greylag.

Re: Advanced Location

Yep, I like a lot of these. The Black Headed Gull is especially good, with the moving wings but rock steady head. A very good selection of shots.
