Fantastic image. What sort of lens arrangement did you use for this beauty?

Thanks Boddie. This is an older piccy so i'll have to go from memory ( i say old but its only 6 weeks ) - This would have been on my Tamron 90mm, 1.4TC with built in flash only. I've only been taking wildlifey type photos for a couple of months and been gradually getting more kit and improving as i go. This was taken in the evening just as light was dropping and these guys were suprisingly happy to sit still allowing me to get right in there.



I'll be back next year to try them again. Now I've picked up some Ext tubes and a ring flash I'm sure I'll be able to get some pretty good shots.



Thanks for your interest - how did you see this one by the way?
