After mistakes I made on my last post (Great tit on a sundial) were pointed out to me by Daniel and Arthur, I've taken those points on board and offer the shot below. I aimed to get the camera settings correct for the shot, to position myself correctly with regards to the light on the subject bird and tried to create a sharp image with a pleasing neutral BG.
The details are:
Canon 1D mk IV
400mm f/5.6 L lens + 1.4x TC = 560mm
AF @ f/8
1/640 sec
0 EC
ISO 500
AV
Distance to subject: 12 - 14 ft. Attracted by seeds.
Comments and critique welcome. I enjoy bird photography and I like to learn :S3:
