Hi,
One from a rather dull and uninspiring morning, very much a work in progress as we work to perfect our hide/office, also a trial of the light panel as a fill light, perch isn't the best I know....
We are having a little problem with a Blue Tit with a rather short tail that dives kami kazi style at any intruders to his feeders....
Very nice Phil. Tail is a bit tight to the left hand side but minor nit.

A good shot given the conditions
That's a lovely background you have here, really helps the bird stand out.

Hello Phil.
Love the Blue Tit and the background, just not keen on the perch but you already know that.

Hi Phil/Fran
Not as comfy as my front room I bet (Or maybe it is )
Nice Blue Tit but to be honest I reckon a landscape would have been better as the perch is a tiny bit dominant. No big deal.
(Just my personal view )
Cheers
John
PS Saw mum last week at a talk I did at Kiddy in the sexual diseases clinic room! very nice !
It is so difficult to get everything as you want it. I envy your BG here Phil. Makes the Blue Tit stand out nicely. You can always change the perch. My problem is getting a decent BG which is much more difficult to change.

Making me jealous with all that talk about warm hides.Good pose and control of the whites background is very nice,Think I am with John on the landscape.

If this is work in progress then we're in for some treats! Very nice. I have a feeling it wasn't supposed to land that high up on the perch though!

Good Lord, too much information!
That's coming along nicely, but I can't see you getting much work done in the office if it's a hide as well, Phil. Looking forward to seeing some more. eric
