Full Frontal (ish)
20D, 300/4 + 1.4, A-327 + BH1
ISO400, 1/160 @ f8, EV-1/3
ACR4.2 Resize and sharpen CS3

Hi,

Another that I had overlooked again using my portable setup, I think it was Graeme that asked, anyway it simply consists of a pair of Manfrotto magic arms these can be clamped to most things, one holds the perch whilst the other holds a small feeder...

Might be out with it this weekend so may try and get an image of it...

All the best

Very pleasing shot Phil, love the background and the detail in the blacks. Wonder if this is the local dominant male.

Have used fill-in flash? it seems very evenly lit compared to the angle of the rim light and the detail in the black feathers :confused:
