Thank you! This beach locati
Thank you! This beach location was very exposed and windy, so I was surprised if anything would come out. I have a Nikon D70S, and just blasted away, with lots of good images being the result. I do believe that this individual is more heavily marked than most. Just prior, I had tracked down and shot a male, but it was very worn so I was happy with this improvement.
