New Bird series (part 1)

@am3 person: Hey "am3 person" I was hoping you'd be the first to comment on my page. I'm glad you had a look. Since you're an avid bird watcher maybe you can shed some light on the birds and raptors that I'll post.

@badala: Thank you very much...please stay tuned for the rest of the pictures.

@Dimitrios: part 1 and series 1 I guess. You'll have to wait for part 2 series 2 another time in the future. But please enjoy series one.

@Jerry: Thanks mate...I hope you enjoy the rest of the series.

@Manuela Photography: Thanks mate...and welcome back with your posts. I hope you enjoy the rest.

@Still: Thanks mate...stay tuned there's more to come.

@Angry Buddha: Thanks mate. I wasn't really going for the detail on the feathers I wanted it more for the head but thems the breaks huh!! Oh well I'm glad you like it though.

@Makoto: ありがとう　マコトさん。

@Alfredo J. Martiz J.: Thanks mate...there's more to come.

@Jen: Thanks mate. Your light bird was impressive too!!

@Stu: Thanks Stu-san, I think the trick with taking shots of birds is the light factor. If you've got a steady hand that really helps aswell. My advice is to use a pretty high iso as it is during the day and your noise will almost be non-exsistant and try to get the shutter speed as high as possible without sacrificing the ev value too much. That way you can get really clear shots even with a little shake of the hand.

Believe me at 300mm a little shake shows alot in the picture.

@Darren: You know what, recently the name of my blog doesn't really hold true to what I want to do with my pictures. Just like the mullet it came and went. So was my fascination with supersaturation. I find that my pictures benifit more just from shadows and highlights. Thanks mate.
