Wren
Thought I would share this one, taken early one morning.
Canon 1Dmk3 EF300f4 + 1.4x Conv, iso1250, 1/1000, f6.3, hand held, cropped.

One of my favourite birds beautifully portrayed. I love its awkward pose. This image deserves more comments. Very nice indeed.

Lovely and a well detailed image, like the 'natural' setting also, very nice Peter :wink: :wink: :wavey:

A nice natural setting that I quite like, clean bg's are all very well but not always possible, this works well, my only nit (which you can't really do much about) is the close proximity of the tip of the beak to the foliage.

Phil, that was mine as well, I did try an edit with that leaf removed but decided against it and went for the as is image..

I think you made the right decision, it looks like it would be very hard to remove the leaf and keep it looking natural.

Hi Peter,

Nice one! Looks great for ISO 1250. Agree about the leaf, but I would also leave it as is!

Cheers,

Lewis.
