Trying to implement the advice and techniques which I really do appreciate. This is an adjustment on the feeding station.

Canon 350D ISO 400 f/6.3 1/40 sec handheld this time.

Again critique and comments most welcome.

Thanks

Barry :eek:

Hi Barry - nice image of one very nice looking bird :toast: :toast:

When you have a gound-based feed station like this you can't help but get the 'feed' in the shot, which might not be a good idea.
Have you tried using a pole feeder instead??

Also I'm a bit confussed on your techs - 1/40th@6.3 at 400iso - surely you mean 1/400th :confused: :confused:

Wish I had one of these at my feeders! Nice image!

Regards Chris. :toast:

Wow, what a bird to get on your feeder.
Yes I agree with changing your viewpoint, the birds are too low down and hiding the feed somehow would be a good idea.
