New pebbles+Marsh Tit
Marsh Tit
Still messing around with pool substrate.
I think the larger version shows the capabilities the D7000 and Nikor 70-300mm combination. A cheap set up in todays terms !!
D7000 Nikor 70-300mm
Nearly full frame.
800ISO Neat image.
125th @f8
Levels /image guru in Paint Shop Pro.

Contrast/Sharpen/ev-down 1 in camera

I have always been impressed with the quality of the 70-300VR, and this shot does it justice. I like the new pebbles too.

I'll bet the garden centres love you JR. Spot on image as always. As David Sewell pointed out in an earlier post, it's the photographer behind the camera that makes the difference. :toast:

I think the pebbles stay for the time being.

I certainly like the pebbles and the bird isn't too shabby either!
