Did you know today was puffin day? I didn't either quite frankly. It seems like every single day has been claimed by something. I'm curious what day is international "nothing day”? This photo is of a horned puffin with a fish in its mouth flying toward Chisik Island at the head of Tuxedni Bay and Cook Inlet. These critters are amazingly fast, like torpedoes. The only way to catch them is in flight is with the newfangled cameras that have auto focus. Back in the day, it was nearly impossible. This photo was made with a Canon 1DX Mark II and a Canon 100-400mm lens at 400mm at 1/1250th second at f/6.3 at ISO 2000 auto… and mind you, I was shooting at 14 frames a second. I'm just hoping that one of them was in focus. That is what we professionals call the "spray and pray" technique.
