4/3/06: This week, Great Egret by Daniel Drabek. This shot was taken in April of 2004 with a Leica D1 digital camera, attached to a TeleVue Ranger spotting scope, with a home-made camera adapter, and using eyepiece projection. The strong vignetting is the result of making the exposure through the telescope.

Daniel is a professional graphic designer, amateur photographer, and regular visitor to Elkhorn Slough.
