Happy New Year all, hope you had a good night (y)

I had a quiet one but saw the New Year in, suffice to say I was up and out this morning so popped up the Chase for a few snaps.

Think I have one of my favourite pictures from there so far...hope you like.

Lovely Great Tit.

Dan, do you lie in wait for these birdies to come along, or do you just spot them as you're walking? I'm not a million miles from Cannock, was contemplating a wander sometime.
 
Hey karl,

you should pop over sometime, there is plenty of wildlife on offer. It does help to have a little food for them, after time they will sit for you to snap.

I do lie in wait though ;)

Thanks for the comment, glad you like!
 
Hi, love the snaps! Im looking to find a photography course in cannock Staffs or surrounding in January 2010. Although I know the very basics of a compact, Im pretty much a beginner. Do you know of a course available in my area that would help expand my knowledge of photography in general? The local technical college has stuff starting in September only. Any suggestions?
 
Try chase-photography.co.uk they do one day courses out ion the Chase. Small numbers etc. May even do one to one, would not hurt to ask. Just a thought.
