f5.6, 1/125, Canon 100-400mm IS L lens, hand held.
I just bought a new camera (digital) and wanted to try it out with wildlife. So I went to the park to photograph birds this afternoon. But I didn't find any at the feeders as they were down, to my disappointment. So I photographed other nature images instead and then decided to leave. I was on my way out when this little guy decided to land right in front of me on the rail, to my surprise. I guess he was checking me out :) I grabbed my camera and shot off 6 images. Thank goodness for 5 frames per second because just a soon as the camera stopped clicking, he flew away.

You sure got an awesome composition and depth of field for such a "spontaneous" shot! GREAT job! By the way, may I ask which font you use for your signature on the image? #1365184Deborah Sandidge May 18, 2005 0

Thank you Mette! I wasn't able to get closer as if I would have moved, he would have been gone right away. The bird is sharper than the photo shows as when I added the border and uploaded it, the photo seemed to have shrunk a bit, which made it not as sharp. I appreciate your feedback :)Thank you The Judges!! #1498592
