Here the take-off of the blue tit. I posted near a nourrissor with seeds of sunflower for birds and I have with my Canon 300D and the 100 macro, successful after many attempts to capture the blue tit at the time of his take-off. This bird is extremely fast and in spite of the sun and a sensitivity equivalent to 400 ISO, the speed of 1/1600 ieme of second is just sufficient to have the movement of the wings with a good clearness. The plant which one sees the foliage is a Violet of La Paz or Apple Kangaroo of Tasmanie (Solanum laciniatum).
Resized and Neat Image for the noise.

Comme elle est mignone cette mésange ! Quand ce regarde votre joli cliché, avec sa pose elle me fait penser à un ange. En effet elle doit vive malgré le 1/1600s... Compliments Maître Didier !

Preciosa imagen congelado en el momento del vuelo.
Preciosos colores.
Un saludo, Juan Luis.

Hi Didier,
The body and head look slightly out of focus, but I think the framing, colours and everything else about this shot are great, especially the composition. It must be an extremely fast bird. Nice shot.
Regards,
Adrian

Another great in-flight shot of this very different insect :-) It looks like a bird ;-)
Ha ha! Didier this changing is very nice, i like this one as well as your in-flight insect shots! Great work!
Thank you!
Ersin

This has to be a really frustrating shot. The pose of the bird is stunning and the light is great. It is just such a shame that the focus is out on the bird's head. Such a difficult shot to pull off and you came so close!

Hello Dider, excllent colors, Bg, POV DOF perefct action to see in this shot, excllet work, TFS Kyle

Vous avez réussi à capturer de beaux détails de cette mésange, mésange bleue inconnue ici au Québec.
Oui, ces oiseaux ne restent pas en place bien longtemps, on dirait qu'elles préfèrent voler. Il nous faut être patients pour réussir une telle prise..
J'aime beaucoup votre présentation, un beau contraste des couleurs de l'oiseau sur ce fond se mariant bien avec les couleurs du sujet.
Merci à vous, Didier.

Didier
J'adore la pose de cette petite mésange. C'est un exploit de l'attraper en vol avec le matériel que tu as utilisé. La netteté sur l'animal n'est pas parfaite mais l'attitude de l'oiseau est tellement superbe que celà ne gène pas. Excellentes couleurs et bon BG
Amicalement
JJ

bonjour didier
c'est vrai que la vitesse est juste mais c'est deja pas mal car il est vrai que les mesange sont rapide et en plus elle ne reste pas en place longtemps.
moi je la trouve bien.

Hello Didier,
Wondeful action capture.I liked moment you caught,catchlight in eyes,framing and composition a lot.
TFS...:-)

Hello Didier,
Excellent POV and framing. Great color, BG, and the light was well managed. Difficult proposition these very small flying birds :)
Well done & have a Great Weekend!

Hi Didier,
Looks great. I would day you just missed the focus point slightly. Colors, composition, and overal framing look great.

Hello Didier,

Good shot. I'll start by saying that the bird is a little soft in focus, which surprises me a little. I've every respect for inflight shots but coming from someone who can get little bugs in flight sharply I'd have thought a blue tit would be easy!!!

The composition is fantastic as are the colours and light.

Well done.

Hi Didier,
I liked the DOF and the colors. But when it comes to the main subject; I know that these birds are small and fast, it is really hard to capture them in-flight. I think you should have tried a shutter speed at least 1/3000 sec. or more to freeze his motion. TFS

Salut Didier
Magnifique photo en macro de cette belle petite mesange bleu .J'aime beaucouo tous les détails et les belles couleurs ainsi que la belle présentation.Cela vaut la peine des fois d avoir de la patience.
Merci et au revoir ....JP

Bonjour Didier !
Voila une superbe photo de cette mésange en vol ! Il s'agit là d'un véritable petit exploit ! :-) Les couleurs, la composition, l'arrière-plan, la pose de la mésange, tout cela est très joli. Félicitations !
Valérie.
