Firstly my sincere apologies for my lack of activity here for a few weeks, personal problems and all that.
Anyway, I finally managed to get out and about this weekend intending to find some dragonflies,which I did, but I got a bit sidetracked, as you do, and found this little fledgling after stalking it for sometime! The light was harsh and getting a clear shot seemed almost impossible, but I thought it was worth posting this little one in what I consider to be an environmental shot.
Not my best image, but I was pleased with it as it is a first for me.
40D, 300mm +1.4 t/c, ISO 100,f6.3,1/500 sec.DPP Cropped to portrait CS4.
Thanks Mark, I do agree with you. Was just pleased to have got the image.

You could have done with the bird just a little further up the reed so that you could have got rid of that fuzzy stuff at the bottom. Uncooperative little wotsit. Having said that, far better than any reed warbler shot I have.
