I start off with one photo first. Haven't really gotten round to sorting/editing.

btw that long yellow beak fella is hornbill also ah?

nono, the hornbill comment was referring to the red beak one that was eating the meat. think it was camera shake cos it was 'rush job' to grab sad.gif

btw Brian, your pictures damn sharp leh. Did you do any additional sharpening in PP?

Haha, I had my cam right up sticking to the fence. The owl didn't even bother opening both eyes, just open one eye look at me ...

Do you lock focus on the eye, recompose and shoot, or just straight focus and shoot at the eye?
For me, 60d can select focus point using the 'joystick' so it was surprising how much faster I can choose which point I want compared to 500d.

what annoyed me a bit was having One-shot vs AI servo on at the wrong time. seems like everytime a bird was flying I was on one-shot. and everytime I wanted to focus-recompose I was on servo.


Added on February 27, 2011, 9:29 am@redcross your two pics look a tad underexposed to me (I'm on iPhone tho. not on calibrated monitor)


Added on February 27, 2011, 9:32 am@Zhengyang one of your stork pic got camera strap hanging on the right side leh!

@kytz actually I kinda line the colors on your birds a lot. very natural looking. I think compared to the rest of us who've perhaps bumped up the saturation/vibrance a little too much on some pics smile.gif

How to direct link picture from flickr? hmm.gif

you click the picture, then click the 'share this' drop down, then 'grab the html/bbcode' then choose bbcode then copy paste the text in the box into the forum.
