Crested tit

[Willem Verboom]

This I made yesterday in the woods on the Veluwe. The light was a bite poor and the ground was wet and soft but, I've him.


f7.1 iso 640 1/100 ev o 1d3 and 500 mm

Thanks for watching.

What a cool looking bird! He's definitely got lots of attitude.
What gear were you using? Wondering if you could eek any more SS to freeze that tail and the crest a bit more (assuming that's motion blur).
Wish the bg was more even and the perch thinner, but congrats on capturing this gorgeous fella. Exposure looks great with the blacks and the whites on the bird.

Sidhart , I'm sorry but I was forget too name my gear:( I've already correct it above. The ss could be better by rase the iso but the are fast fellows.So I had no time for the changes

nice one Willem,love the eye on this,perch is alright to me,nice detail in the bird,BG, not the best,but still a very nice shot.thanks.

I think you handled the problem of shooting this bird fairly well. I'd not seen any crested tits on this forum; a welcome addition.

A beautiful bird indeed. Nice profile image, nicely exposed and details look good. Too bad the vertical transitional line in the BG is so bold and close to the bird. Perch a bit thick as mentioned earlier. All in all I'd be happy with this one.
