    Hi friends
    Another form to photograph birds in the nature. In order to take photos from nature it is not necessary to resort to expensive objectives, with imagination and with a 28-80, cable trigger of 25 meters and patience, these and better photos can be obtained.

    Muy buenas amigos
    Otra forma de fotografiar naturaleza y aves en concreto. Deciros que aunque la mayoría lo sabéis para tomar fotos de naturaleza no es necesario recurrir a objetivos costosos, con imaginacion y con un 28-80, cable de 25 metros y paciencia, se pueden obtener estas tomas e incluso mucho mejores, como digo es cuestión de "trabajar" las tomas cada foto se lleva su tiempo y no hay que dejar que actue la improvisación, cuanto menos improvisación mejor, aunque hay que reconocer que cuanto más se trabaja, más suerte se tiene. Es cierto y eso tampoco lo voy a descubrir que con un buen objetivo se tiene ganado mucho, pero esta foto que subo es para que los que se inician en la fotografía de aves, no tienen que recurrir a realizar grandes desembolsos para obtener los objetivos más potentes y caros para obtener "buenas fotos".

    Quite the perspective giving us a great indication of it's habitat!! I wish the bird was better lit, but still impressive and refreshing :-)

    Agree with the above comments. Sometimes we forget about the environment that the birds live in. Your photo is a nice reminder!

    I said "Oh Wow!" (luckily in a whispered voice since I'm at work right now) when I opened this image. We very often forget the bird's habitat in this type of photography. The portrait shots, as beautiful as they are, isolate a large amount of what makes bird photography interesting. Truly a wonderful image. I love the habitat and the way the bird just jumps out of the image. Very nice work.

    Hi Jorge - Well captured!!
    It appears to be a Bee-eater braking at its nest hollow tunnelled into the ground?!
    I would like to see a little more light on the bird, but nice environmental shot!!

    This is great Jorge, I love the point of view in this image and the interesting technique that you used to capture it. Is very nice to see part of the habitat of the species because most part of the time we focuses on capture a detailed, frame filling portrait, with out of focus background and we lost part of the charming that is the bird in its habitat. My only critic is that the bee eater needs more light and that I would prefer to see the wings spread but it is an amazing photograph.
    Well done my friend

    Very well done.
    As the eye shot is so sharp I take it you were directly behind the camera some distance away?
