Thank you very much, Birdie! And your replacement target is a beauty! For sure it is not less attractive than a hummer and your rendition of the bee and flower is just wonderful.
I decided to go to Herdsman Lake with the main goal of trying BIF for the first time. I have a new respect for BIF, there's a lot of technique and skill involved and I didn't even have a large zoom lens to have to hold - just my 135GM as per usual! It's quite addictive, the challenge, the burst picture review to then potentially find something really special, I've started looking for a 200-600..
The last picture is a 20G pano of Perth city from Kings Park.
