Miss New Berlin

I saw the Miss New Berlin last night when I was driving home from the beach. She was moored in the salt marsh, and she was begging for me to take her picture. My longest lens was a 200 mm, and the misses was about 1/4 mile away. So I returned today. With a 600mm.

I'm a Canon shooter, but at the T-U, everything is Nikon. On Wednesday, while shooting Jaguars off-season practice, I went through four partially charged Nikon batteries in one D1X. Surely, with a charged battery, I could shoot the Miss New Berlin.

Twenty shots into the self-assignment, the battery died. That's Nikon for you. But I can't complain too much, because I'm really happy with the pictures.
