Hello,

Has started the breeding season and Pitirres change their temperament, spends hours "discussing" flying near power cables. Since early morning, up and down the evening, the males defend their territory and females. There is little room for silence while these small birds settle their differences.
I took advantage of the circumstances to do some "exercises" to catch these birds in flight.

These birds are quite common and I already have a post of them before. Why not mount note of this species.

What if I can say is that, using an ISO 200 (I normally use 80 or 100 for outdoor shots) I could put the shutter speed to 1 / 1600 and use an aperture of f/5.6, the zoom is 10x This combination allowed me to improve the capture of birds in flight. (either that matter is reviewed for many members, but to me it is continuous learning, and I hope that some members with compact cameras, they can see the post and that this detail will be helpful)

My greetings to all,

Jesús

Hola,

Ha comenzado la temporada de reproducción y los Pitirres cambian su temperamento, pasa horas "discutiendo" volando cerca de los cables de energía. Desde muy temprano en la mañana, hasta ya caída, la tarde, los machos defienden su territorio y sus hembras. Queda poco espacio para el silencio mientras estos pequeños pájaros dirimen sus diferencias.
He aprovechado las circunstancias, para hacer un poco de "ejercicios" de capturas en vuelo con estos pájaros.

Estas aves ya son bastante comunes y ya tengo un post de ellas con anterioridad. Por eso no colocaré nota informativa, de esta especie.

Lo que si les puedo decir, es que; usando un ISO 200 (acostumbro a usar 80 o 100 para tomas exteriores) he podido colocar la velocidad de obturación en 1/1600 y usar una apertura de f/5.6, el zoom es de 10x, esta combinación me permitió mejorar la captura en vuelo de las aves. (ya se que es materia repasada para muchos miembros, pero para mi es aprendizaje continuo, y tengo la esperanza de que algunos miembros, con cámaras compactas, puedan ver el post y que les sea útil este detalle)

Mis saludos a todos,

Jesús

Hi Jesus, a wonderful action shot of these dancing beauties. Great in-flight shot. According to me you can increase the ISO sensirivity up to 800 for obtaining more effective freezing effect.
TFS this fine in-flight shot under weak light conditions.
Have agreat new week MF!
Cheers,

Hello Jesus,
You did well on this capture. 1/1600 almost froze the wings of what must be a very quick bird. This behavior goes on all around us, but we must stop and observe if we are to see it. Thanks for sharing.
Regards,
Greg

Hola Jesus

Vaya imagen dificil de tomar, con los pajaros en vuelo. Fantastica, aunque me sobran los dos cables blancos. Es lo que hay, las tomas como están y no como cada uno quiere.

Felicidades una imagen excelente.

Un saludo Antonio

Hi Jesus. Dynamic and interesting shot. Well done.

Roberto
