Northern Shoveler and Mallard

I went, out this morning briefly to expect gloomy conditions but I did get about a 15 minute Sunny break to Photo this beauty of a Northern Shoveler and Female Mallard at Mill Creek Marsh.
 
Another thing to I did end up stepping in a steaming heep of Dog Crap which about Pissed me off, and I think I seen the culprit and his master , we will see what happens next time Im there and we bump into each other!

Ruddy Ducks

Here is a pair of Ruddy Ducks taken at about 200 feet with the 30 wide eyepiece, I like the performance of this eyepiece but I will have to compare test wiith the 25LER eyepiece.

Test through Email

Part 2 set up pictures




Here is a continuation of the last post.

Kowa TSN-17W eyepiece/Kowa TSN-DA3






I finally used the Kowa 30 wide eyepiece with no problems of excessive vignetting or off pitch shadowing when using the TSN-DA10.
The Kowa TSN-DA3 is a bit bulky but adds stability with a bonus of perfectly centering my Nikon P6000 and producing almost a capture free of Vignetting at the wide setting on the P6000.
Here are some captures taken today in dismal weather conditions plus a few pictures of the set up.
