Description
This portrait of a Sharp-shinned Hawk was taken from inside my home in the mountains of Western North Carolina. Shooting through doubled-paned, insulated glass is not easy; the lens has to be snug against the glass. Any noise (like clicking lens on glass) will scare the bird.
I used a Canon 7D camera with an EF 100-400mm lens set at 340.0 mm. Exposure was 1/500 at f/5.6 and ISO 100. I am pleased with the result. I love living in the forests of the Smoky Mountains.
