To Mirror the Egret Portrait

Regretting the Egret Portrait, originally uploaded by Woody Ang.

This shot highlights the bokeh ability of the cheap telephoto. These egrets are serious bird posers. Plenty of willing models around the bird park. Mouse-over the image to view a near mirrored twin. This latter shot was taken by Jason Wan using a prosumer Canon S2 IS. I dare say it's a better shot and I really wonder what he'd be capable of if he had a dSLR. Time will tell, for the ability is unquestionable.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION:
Canon EOS 350D, EF 90-300mm f/4.5-5.6 USM, Exposure, 1/125 at f/5.6, ISO 400
