Hi Folks,
So it's been a while. I put the camera down a few years ago as I wasn't seeing my photography develop since I started in 2006 - I did occasionally take out the camera and sit in bird hides and get a few simple pictures, but as of late I wasn't overly impressed with myself. So I challenged myself - I rented out a Canon EF400mm L prime and got in contact with a guy in Sussex who owns a woodland and specalises in bird photography, so booked myself in for a session at his hides and I was able to prove to myself that it genuinely is a limitation of equipment which prevents me to take the type of photos I want, so now I know this, and with a better job (teaching sucked!) I am saving to get the needed focal length.
Anyways, enough of that here are a few photos I was able to get - unfortunetly they're super noisy because I had to use super high ISO for a fast enough shutter as the weather was not playing ball, out of all the shots I got these are my favourite, I would love to know your opinions - and where to go to better these photos (other than the noise issues).
Thanks guys.
(please don't judge the file names - I wasn't aware thats how faststone re-named the files. Everyday is a school day! )
