Jamaica Bay Wildlife preserve and Digiscoping in low light
Hello all
Third time at Jamaica Bay seemed to be a charm like the capture I have of this Red Knot and Wilson's Phalarope ,which was 1 of 8 of the them in various non-breeding plumage's , granted it is not the most colorful of species this time of year which the lighting conditions is a contributing factor also.
Now on the lighting conditions from a scale 1 to 10 as 1 being the worst, I give it a 2 to 4 because the sun did peek out occasionally raising my shutter speed a bit .
