Hi Frederic, excellent shot. The massive oak certainly makes for a different and abstract scene. What a playground for the youngsters! :toast: :toast: :toast: Are you shooting a 1D or 1Ds? I know this may be a lot to ask, but could you email me a small 100% cutting of the image. I just want to see what the noise is like at ISO1000. Would be greatly appreciated! :wavey:

Thats a big tree-what a great setting and perfect for high ISO as you do not tend to see grain with this kind of background

Superb again, what a setting you have found yourself. Congratulations. More, many more to come no doubt.

Its a great shot Frederic,

Within a large tree must be a relatively rare choice for these creatures to set-up home :confused: Ive never seen any similar shots, {apart from this series of yours}, and agree with the previous comments.
