First try at Bird Photography

[dunganick]

Went out thursday morning to the local reservoir to catch some snowey shots.

And captured a few that i quite liked (i appreciate a they are hardly the most unusual birds in the world, i did miss a lovely shot of a woodcock )

1. Possibly not contrasty enough....

2. My favourite

Some nice capture Nick for your first attempt, however imo watermarks across the middle of them do nothing to the picture :shrug:

Thanks ,

My website applies the watermark as standard, and im too lazy to upload them up again with the watermark turned off

I'm never one to miss a bandwagon when I see one rolling - great shots apart from you know what

Why not place it at the bottom instead of slap bang centre.

Watermark fail

Clearly not watermark fans over in the bird forum

I was if im honest really looking for more crit on the pictures than the watermark

The watermark is required for my motorsport stuff, and as said i cant be bothered to re-upload the images after turning off the watermark feature. (im your typical lazy student type...)

Thankyou everyone for the kind comments either way.

Watermark? I thought the birds had a tattoo.:shrug:

Tbh, Im with everyone else... the watermark is just too much, and imo it makes it actually quite difficult to critique the images.
That said, they look nicely composed and exposed, and its good to see the Robin obliged you by standing out in the open
