Martin Good Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: On p.1 #1 · Window View A few weeks ago I looked out my window, my apt is on the 6th floor, and saw this Great Spotted Woodpecker sitting in the tree outside. Having chased some of these around the woods with no luck getting close and although the light was not so good I got a couple of shots. 1 I'm sure he was keeping his eye on me 2 Double checking over his shoulder 3 Then along came this little Bluetit who did not want to be left out of things, but this is fairly heavily cropped   Canon EOS-1Ds Mark II    500 mm    f/7.1    1/640 sec    400 ISO    0.0 EV     Canon EOS-1Ds Mark II    500 mm    f/7.1    1/640 sec    800 ISO    0.0 EV     Canon EOS-1Ds Mark II    500 mm    f/7.1    1/640 sec    800 ISO    0.0 EV   Dec 06, 2008 at 01:50 PM

Karl Witt Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: On p.1 #3 · Window View Hi Martin Never missing an opportunity I see. That blue-tit is a beautiful bird. I don't think that shooting through the window glass was helping you but the shots are nice The weather looked a bit dreary in a few but I would love to see you get some great shots of that bird. Take care Martin! Karl Dec 06, 2008 at 02:07 PM

Take care Martin! Karl Hi Karl, I did actually open the window first, maybe I should have kept mum on this if the shots seem otherwise, but you are right, the weather was not so good and the light was going down rapidly. Will try and nail one good one of the Bluetit just for you Cheers, Martin Dec 06, 2008 at 02:20 PM

Lil The bluetits used to nest on our balcony inside the shutter blind box but I wasn't taking photos back then. Maybe they will come back. Might buy some seed and see if that would entice them. Thanks for the picks. Martin Dec 06, 2008 at 11:03 PM

PetKal Online Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: On p.1 #15 · Window View That's a very respectable haul for a window shoot Martin. From my window I can only shoot our neigbour which I have been tempted to do a few times in the past few years. Dec 06, 2008 at 11:14 PM

Shasoc Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: On p.1 #16 · Window View Very nice set, Martin. Good job considering the dull lighting. The first and last are my picks. Socrate Dec 07, 2008 at 03:20 AM

Thanks PetKal, as for shoooting your neighbour, maybe you had better keep resisting the temption or you might get a more restrictive window with lots of bars Martin Dec 07, 2008 at 09:01 AM

Socrate Thanks Socrate. I was practicing the technique you PM'ed me on with layers and I can see how it can emphasize the lines and colors. Martin Dec 07, 2008 at 09:03 AM
