CHARLES DOBBS PHOTOGRAPHY
Taken at the Dallas Aquarium yesterday with my family in town from Colorado and Florida. I have been here several times, but it never ceases to amaze me at what beautiful animals they have. I would still prefer them to all be free though.
Shot with a Nikon D300 and f/2.8 @ 200mm for 1/30 sec, ISO 800.
For the past few days, this male wild turkey and his harem of two females has wandered my work campus with no regards for the humans that might be walking by. They seem well adjusted to humans. Today, I found them at the front of our building with the male all puffed up and strutting his stuff. He apparently was seeing himself in the windows and putting on his best show to let that other male know that these were his ladies and his alone.
I wasn’t real happy that I was having to shoot in the shade with the sun shining behind them, but its not like I could tell the turkeys to give me some better lighting. But for the most part I think these shots turned out nice enough.
