This may be a first Joey. We are gallery mates! Wow how cool is that. Hope all is well as your image is...so sharp. You must have been pleased to let the shutter go at the moment. Full framed portrait in perfect condition...Official DotOrg stamp of approval!

Hello Joe,
Great detail and well framed. I see you are also pushing your ISO, I am now shooting all my wildlife pics at 800, at first I was worried about noise, but that doesnt seem to be a problem with digital photography and it also ups my shutter speed.
Well done, fantastic photo

Hi Joe,

Looks like an old man with a cigar in his mouth! Fantastic close-up - the details of the face, feathers, beak and eye are wonderful. Beautiful colors and shadings. The worm in the beak makes this really special.

A perfect portrait of a beautifully plumaged bird in fine focus and great detail Joe, that tenebrionid larva looks like a giant cigar my friend, reminiscing Churchill a little, maybe...

Joey, it's incredibly close! I'm so glad that you enjoy that fantastic lens, look at the great result you obtain and yessss! you make great pictures with it! Superb close-up, almost a macro (!), and I'm very glad this worm is in the bird's mouth, not in mine ;-* Thanks for your superb post,

Hi Joe,

Wow! what a great close up shot.
The details are fantastic, you can really see how the markings are made up with all the white tipped feathers going aroung the eye.
Nicely composed with a great POV set against a lovely OOF BG.
Superb colours too.
Think I might invest in some mealworms! if you get results like this!.

Hi Joe,
his is a truly exceptional portrait of a Dunnock. They are very shy where I live, but you have to almost scrape it off your lens! Smart guy, puts out mealworms. Look at all the details you can study on the head, wonderful.
Best regards
