Excellent cap Jeroen, the colours are almost sureal :toast:
This is the type of shot Nikon should look at before they go any further - another 800 iso stunner :wavey:

Super, perhaps the perch could be a little more diagonal for a little bit more impact?

Hi Jeroen

A lovely image, great colour. :toast:

The latest DSLRs are certainly expanding the possibilites for nature photography. ISO800 on many cameras is now very useable and gives great results with little noise.

cheers
