Garden Birds.

Posted 23/03/2021 - 20:01 Link
Just before the first lockdown I mortgaged the house and bought a second hand Pentax 150-450mm zoom and a 1.4x converter with a view to photographing seabirds. So far the nearest we got to the sea was our garden so the subject matter is a little more limited: sparrow, dunnock and blackbirds.

They are beautiful lenses but I am now saving up for the truck to carry them in!!

All good captures. Subjects exhibit plenty of detail and you have nailed the eye focal point.

Well photographed.

Best regards

Thanks for your comments. I am really looking forward to getting to the sea to try this set up out on seabirds before they disappear. Soon... perhaps!

Best wishes

Super shots and a great advert for the lens.
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass
