[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I just really liked this image I captured of the robin. This was a very friendly bird and got very close. At one stage it was only a foot away from me. I had to sit very still. But then it sat in a tree nearby and posed. A fun way to spend some time. The photo was taken in the Botanic Gardens.

beautiful shot, paul! :-)
what a cute robin, excellent details
and composition, superb pose and nice
eyecontact, good colors, which could be even a bit stronger.
well seen & captured, thor.

You are lucky, Paul, that birds pose for you like this. Good detail and sharpness. The eye is incredible. Simply Beautiful!

How do you like the 100-400mm IS lens, as far as sharpness and speed of focussing are concerned?
