Finally Got my New Camera!

So I finally Broke down and purchased myself a brand new Canon 5D Mark III!!! for obvious reasons I am very, very excited! I just wanted to post a few images that I took during my first week with it, so bear in mind I am still getting used to how well it performs.

With 61 Autofocus Points (each of which is individually selectable) this camera provides unparalleled, albeit exceptionally confusing to use, Focusing Abilities.

Moreover, it is a huge step up from my previous T2i, in that, its ISO speed is very Grain free even when used at High Levels.

Great Blue Heron, near Trenton.

Seagull Taking off. I might have Chased him to get this image....

But Seriously, no animals were harmed in the making of this blog post.

Angel Wings?

And finally he decided he had, had enough and took wing for real this time.... So long!

It has become excruciatingly clear that I have a thing for Photographing Avian life......

Great Lakes Terns!

Beautiful Birds, it really is something to see them Hunt! From about 100 feet in the air, they just drop out of the sky and into the water to Catch Fish.

The Canon 5D mark III had a built in HDR mode, which allows it to take 3 pictures, at different Exposure levels, and then combine them, to form one photograph, with all the best highlights and contrast of each picture. unfortunately it doesn't fair well with moving Subjects...

It does Alright with Stationary Subjects however. Although I have not yet mastered this type of Photography yet, I do think it still gives a bit of an unrealistic look to images, and moreover it looks a bit cartoonish.
