I had so much fun with the sparrows the other day that I decided to give it a try with the blue gays ... got a bit more light on the bg by putting a large spotlight in front of the edge ... wish I could have gotten him all in the frame .. but darn these little guys are fast and they dont hover like the sparrows ...
the set up - peanut on top of the feeder .. pre focused about 1 foot of the feeder .. lighting on the BG ... 1 good shot priceless ... ;-) ![]() 1/2500s f/8.0 at 400.0mm iso400 ![]() 1/2500s f/9.0 at 400.0mm iso400 this one is a bit out of the focus zone ![]() 1/2500s f/9.0 at 400.0mm iso400 Thanks Rick
