Feathered

  Oh goodness - birds and no zoo allowed! I'm not really a 'bird' person so this was always going to be a tricky one. Fortunately we spent a weekend camping during this theme period, so there were quite a lot of birds hanging around . The trick is to actually catch them - difficult! I'm reasonably pleased with these shots though  :)



Same breed of bird again. These guys are so fast! Crazy, crazy fast and kinda twitchy. (Well that and the added difficulty of my dane shadowing me while I was shooting, that probably didn't help!). I am really happy with this second shot, the light is nice and I've only tweaked it slightly in LR.


There were so many cockies around - I really wanted an 'in flight' shot but easier said than done. I wanted something a bit sharper than this, but its not bad for my not hugely awesome kit lens!. I like the angle he's on and the bush background, made it feel a little more atmospheric.

    You did well Lorrella, the little wrens are so hard to catch the way they dart around!

    Awesome job capturing the wrens as they're such fast little things. I love the colour and light in the first shot and well done on the cockatoo in flight.
