| | | A real pleasure... It's a real pleasure to live where I do. We have such good wildlife and many great photographic opportunities and I'm looking forward to getting my Sigma 50-500mm so that I can get some shots worthy of the bird Gallery. I've been sitting at my window all morning with 4 rolls of film and my gem of a 35mm SLR. I popped on the 200mm f4. and snapped partridges, great tits, blue tits, coal tits, collared doves, robins and a lovely little female chaffinch. Hopefully, I'll develop the films and be able to scan them to show you
I look forward to contributing towards this popular and high profile section of the forum,

What's the bird life like up where you are? | Morels ... Roll on the last week in March ... seek out those Ash trees and disturbed ground
Clumber's good for birdlife ... had to be didn't it  I think all my bird images on WAB are from Clumber. I'm still very much a novice with bird photography  I'm thinking of inviting Graham up for an all expenses paid long weekend to teach me the art ... don't tell him this, he may take me up on the offer 
I'd recommend a good monopod but having said that, I've not had much success with mine ... I kept falling over
All good fun though |  | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
