lol, join the club of people who posted robin pics, i think the total will be in its 100's soon. Its a really nice shot, but it looks like to me that the eye is slightly out of focus but from what i can see a tiny bit of PS will do the trick, but correct me if i'm wrong. Nice shot all the same is it cropped ?

It's a fairly huge crop (hence the inherent noise). Nope I dont see that they eye is not sharp (since the rest of the head is in DOF).

One well groomed robin - they all look pretty scruffy in my garden at the moment

Eye looks pretty sharp to me. 'Tis pretty good for a cropped shot - how close were you?

EDIT: Hate to sound like a mod (:D) but it's over the size limit :p

About 8 feet away. Long end of the 70-200




EDIT: Hate to sound like a mod (:D) but it's over the size limit :p

The longest edge is 1000 pixels. Thats the limit isnt it? :thinking: (or is it 800... now you've started me worrying).

It's 800, and 1000 for pano's. Just tell them this is a panorama ;)

If that eye is out of focus then I'm a Chinaman (or whatever the politically correct phrase is these days).

Beautifully turned out Robin. Obviously hasn't had his first territorial scrap yet.

Come on admit it you gave it a comb before hand.:D
Nice shot of a nice tidy Robin, and the eye is fine.
