Hello Ivan,
Very nice shot. Even after heavy crop this picture still sharp and well exposed. Lovely eye contact and blurred background. Very well done and tfs.

bonjour ivan
encore une reussite,on arrive même a voir l'oeil malgres la couleur noire de sa tête.
j'aime beaucoup sa pose tout en haut de l'arbre,j'imagine que cela devait bouger un peu et pourtant la nettetéest parfaite.

Hi Ivan,

What a great shot of this pretty Bird with such lovely markings, very good composition and POV, the pose is excellent I love the way his feet are clinging on to its perch, nice sharp detail and fabulous colours complimented by a great BG.

Hi Ivan, You made a beautiful photo from this blak and white bird (dificult conditions). For a little bird, to do a good photo from 12 m. is a performance!

Hej Ivan
Nice shot of this Cyprus Weather. Details are still good conceding heavy crop. Pose and BG work well making this shot attractive :)

Imorgon ska jag åka till en ett nytt ställe som heter Gällstaviken och ligger 45 min från Stockholm. En kille från jobbet sa att man kan se Rördrom och lite till. Hoppas jag hittar dit :) och att vädret är OK.

Ivan, this is a great photo. The calm coulours in the BG and the contrasting colours of the bird puts the viewers focus right on the spot, the birds eye with a reflection and all.

Nice details in the plumage and a great POV enhances this even further!

Very impressive capture from a sizable distance, Ivan. You always manage such shots very well.
The Cyprus Wheatear is a handsome black and white bird. You have captured it in a very attractive pose with its head lifted high. I can see its steady grip on the twig with both feet.
Does teleconverter work without a hitch on your 300mm? I have been wanting to go for one, but the feedback to my query on the Forum has left me more confused than ever.
TFS.

Hello Ivan!
I am really surprised that there is an endemic bird species on Cyprus. I had no idea that about that. On the other hand I have to confess that I have never seen this species before. Very beauty picture. I like colours of this bird, even if it is mainly "black and white" ;>
By the way, is this species similar in size to our Parus species or bigger, eg. like Turdus?
TFS and have a nice day!

Hi Ivan,
really a great shot of this bird. I like the POV and his position just at the end of branch. The light on the eye is good too.
