Goldfinch

Many Thanks for taking the time to look

Paul I really like your talent at catching birds in flight and you've shared some really nice images. In this particular one the shadow cast by the head and bill on the throat / upper breast is very distracting to my eye.

I really appreciate your comments on this picture....You are totally right about the shadow...I try to use available natural light to capture the small bird inflights but it has to be said my lense is a little slow aperture wise and it is then a juggle between iso settings etc to achieve a shutter speed capable of stopping the bird and achieving a sharp eye and body parts as well as a background that is in context to the picture without the aid of post proccessing.

All the Best and Thanks again

Paul

Not exactly razor sharp and recognizable enough, but good!
