Outstanding grackle pic! Are you using the 400mm f/5.6 for those?
Dave
A lot of good posts lately.
dsiegel5151 - Your shots are so sharp... the eyes look great.
I saw a Wood Duck today for about 10 seconds and pulled up and had about 2 seconds to get all the shots I was going to get. So things were not optimised and I ended up only being able to get this at ISO-3200... so it is not very sharp at all and was very noisy, but I have been looking for one of these for a while now and was happy to get such a colorful bird.

Yeah, those are all with the 400 f5.6L. It is without a doubt the sharpest lens I have.
Dsiegel,
Really nice portraits of the Grackle and Cowbird....exquisite detail and color!
Been pretty warm here recently and lost of activity. Here are few from the other day.

Dan - Pretty difficult to get a shot of a small bird in the air... nice job.Quote:

I am sure there are other ways also, but for me Flickr seemed easy.

Here's one from my yard set up using the 1D MKIV, 500mm + 1.4 TC, no flash, ISO 1000, 1/640 sec, f/5.6

Another stunning photo Joel. Is that background natural or did you use the Color EFX software on it?--Regardless, It is very nice
Thanks Bob, the trees are budding out now, Redbuds, Oaks, Hickory and Maple so there are lots of subtle greens and pinks in the BG....these are in the RAW image and accentuated by Color Efex Pro.Quote:
