Six ducks, Tufted Ducks if I remember correctly, swimming towards me from shadows, just before sunrise.
Technique: both the X-T1 and X-T2 have large and very usable Electronic Viewfinders (EVF). Here I set the X-T2 to spot metering, and moved the metering spot around the frame until the EVF showed me an effect I liked, when I locked the exposure via the AE-L button. Then, with the exposure locked, I framed the image as I wanted it and fired. This is certainly not total reality as it appeared at the time, but rather my interpretation of it – and a technique where EVFs really come into their own.

Technique: X-T2 with 55-200 Fujinon lens at 305mm (equiv); 3200 ISO; spot metering; Lightroom, using the Velvia/Vivid film simulation; Herons Green Bay, Chew Valley Lake, Somerset; 16 Feb 2018.
