All the ducks were little motorboats zipping through the view finder. We are lucky to see them let alone get a picture.

Equipment-Photos taken with iPhone5s attached to a very high-powered spotting scope

I usually don’t care for fancy expensive equipment to take photos but I sure liked looking through and taking pictures with this big scope. This is what we saw without it.

Thanks to everyone who gave me very good feedback on my Muse photo last week I’m keeping the sign.
Let me know what you think
What a glorious place to meditate on nature’s bounty. The wildlife is a festival of color and forms. Happy Photo Challenge.

This place is a half a mile from my home, unfortunately because of the freeway I have to drive, but what a gift!! I have to pinch myself sometimes it’s so wonderful!

An added challenge to the challenge, Carol. I am envisioning those little ‘motorboat’ ducks and how hard it must have been for you to photograph them. You did a good job.
One question: Did you just put your phone up to the shooting scope and focus/shoot, or was there a mount to hold the iPhone in place while you took your photos?

There was an adapter it looked like a phone case that fit the scope. It was fun chasing those little ducks.
