Japanese Photographer’s Stunning Duck Photos Taken with 2.4 Million Yen Lens Goes Viral

In the modern era, shooting a good photo while on the run is not difficult due to developments in technology and photographic gear. However, using professional photography gear is still necessary to take photos with excellent quality, precise detail, and accuracy.

A Japanese Twitter user (@Pharao444) recently posted a picture of a duck that was taken with a telephoto lens from Nikon (NIKKOR Z 600mm f/4 TC VR S), which costs 2.43 million yen (about RM 80,027.46). The picture was so stunning that it soon gained popularity online.

The Twitter user is a passionate photographer and YouTuber who shares his follower’s photography-related information. He posted a number of images of ducks swimming in a pond, one of which showed a duck expanding its wings. It’s difficult to catch such moments, but the user managed to do so while also producing a photo that has the feel of a well-known painting, astounding onlookers.

After viewing the image, viewers could not help but compliment it for its flawless composition, exquisite feather detail, and faithful capture of the duck’s expression. People believed that each photo was worth millions of yen because they were all as beautiful as paintings.

Many netizens also shared their own duck photos in the comments, joking that the difference between their photos and the professional photos was significant, which highlights the importance of both patience and skill in photography. The user should be commended for their expertise in photography and use of high-quality tools.
