The Girl from Miami

May 30, 2014 We photograph birds often in places where people like to walk and sight see. On an average day we interact with dozens of people who want to know what we are doing, how big the lens is, etc. This young woman and four of her friends greeted Tony and me and she and the fellow in their group went out near the edge of the cliff and were jumping in the air for their friends to shoot IPhone shots. They asked us to take a photo of all of them and I asked if I could with my camera. They were excited to have their photos taken. With a 200-400mm lens, I could only get one person in the photo. This is it.

Nikon D800 Nikkor 200-400mm lens 210mm ISO800 1/1250 f/9 White balance auto Processed minimally in Lightroom. It is uncropped.

Comments welcome and appreciated. :wavey:
