    Since lacking new images I share here one of my favorite images I ever made.
    I was lucky enough to have those Bearded Reedlings on the same reed stick in the same pose.

    Unfortunately I don't have the original file with me on this computer so not too many details are available.

    Bearded Reedling (Panurus biarmicus)
    NW Hungary, Europe l March 2007
    Canon EOS-1D Mark II N l EF 600mm f/4.0L IS USM l Extender EF 1.4x II
    ISO200 l cropped from horizontal l AWB

    Please, leave a comment on this image how you like it ;)

    Great to have both in the frame! I like the light, details, composition and colors. Do you remember the aperture that you used?

    It is most probably f8 (but not sure) and I used aperture priority. It is shame I cannot instal Aperture here as the notebook is too old :(

    One of my favourite birds. You were lucky to catch them out in the open and to make such a superb image too is outstanding. Well done.
