location: American River near Nimbus Dam (Sacramento County CA)
hardware:  R8/DMR, 280mm f/4 APO-Telyt, shoulder stock

cropped slightly.  All comments welcome.


Hi Doug!

An excellent shot!

Unless I miss my guess, it was shot in either early morning or late afternoon light. The shadows and the position of the catchlight give it away.

Gorgeous, soft background, too. :-)

What can I say?  I wish I'd taken that one!

Cheers!
