Hej Paul,
Very nice capture of one our popular friends.
The technical quality is excellent and I like the composition of this great Tit against the dark BG. Superb sharpness and DOF for such a low aperture.
TFS and best regards, Ivan

Hi Paul, yes your lens seems to be doing a great job. The lighting and background gives the photo some mood. A nice image of the bird with good colors and detail. Interesting little perch and a good composition. Nice job, thanks.

Hallo Paul,
Wat een perfectie in deze foto. Zelfs de achtergrond werkt mee in de diagonale compositie. Scherpte en kleuren zijn niet te verbeteren. Perfecte belichting. Kortom... jaloers!
Groeten,
Peter

Hi Paul,

I apologise for my long absence. The hectic pace of life leaves one little time for relaxation and hobbies.

I love pictures of birds, and this one is very good. Great detail and DOF, making the BG so nice. Well done.

Hi Paul.
First of all I wish to congratulate you on purchasing new lens: terrific 300 mm "G" Minolta/Sony lens. This event cannot be overestimated. I, probably, will not even see this lens (as well as your other brilliant 70-200 mm "G" lens). It is clear this lens + your skillfulness have brought us amazing tit shot. The colours, sharpness of the bird and twigs are outstanding. BG, its blurriness (bokeh) is more than outstanding. Bravo and TFS.
Alexei.
When you will buy Sony A700 I shall bombard you with questions. Do you agree?
