Gone to See Patagonia 2015 Photography Tour with Thom Hogan. Day 4: Hosteria Helsingfors.
Wet Crested Caracara at Hosteria Helsingfors in Patagonia (southern Argentina). The bird was sitting outside the kitchen window in the rain (begging for bacon). Images taken with a Fuji X-T1 camera and 55-200 mm lens (ISO 800, 200 mm, f/4.8, 1/30 sec). Raw image processed with Capture One Pro, Focus Magic, and Photoshop CC.
I think I am going to like this lens. The images were taken hand-held with the optical image stabilization (OIS) on at 1/30 sec.

I am a scientist by training (Eckerd College, BSc; Caltech, Ph.D.). I worked for 27 years as a Chemist in the Pharmaceutical Industry developing processes to manufacture medicines for human and animal health. I now spend my time as a photographer and world traveler. My interests include the natural world, wildlife, landscapes, sky, and seascapes, travel, and astrophotography. I look for unique ways of viewing the world and presenting my images. I have traveled to over 55 countries in six continents, often on Semester at Sea voyages. While at home in New Jersey, I spend time on home renovation and expansion of a wildflower garden/meadow.

Wonderful detail. That is a portrait to be proud of, +David Mathre!
+Anthony Medici+Thom Hogan Check the location for this image within G+. It appears to be about 20 miles off. However, when I put the same GPS coordinates into either Google Maps or Bing Maps it is right on for Helsinfors where the image was taken. S49°40.109 W72°53.070 or -49.66894715020478 -72.88282871246338
I can't get the exact location to come up on my iMac using google maps. I think it is trying to associate it to an address and I can't get it to stop that.

I think it is a fine lens, too!
