Tadpole

6/7/2015

I gave myself a tough assignment today.  Get the best picture of the little tadpoles in the pond possible.  First I tried a high ISO, that proved too noisy. I then tried a low ISO and a 300mm full-frame lens on my Nikon D90 which should have given me 450mm. That turned out to be the best I could come up with. Turns out shooting through water is messy and a little distorted. The little guy in the upper right corner is about as clear as I could get. Still less than an inch long, you can see his tail fin and a rear leg emerging and his little eye.
