Not a problem, as long as everyone is happy or "seow" with this hobby, we can bring closer to our groups and get more people to join in.

Good Idea, and besides a group should never be exclusive...always welcome new people, friendly, humble, and always there to help. SOme newbies are very reluctant and afraid to join any group because of fear that the group maye clicquish, or there just to compare with the have and have nots. Should never let it be an uneasy feeling for everyone especially those newer ones joining.

These are a few shot of mine.
Use picasa to export, no time to edit much so the white balance is very messy.

The bird is called hornbill and not horn bell. If you wanna get a better shots of it, try 1130 hrs during the hornbill show. It will be displayed outside the cage.

Your 600mm with FF bokeh is very nice indeed.

The James Bond is in Morphis cam.
For that shot, I borrowed his 20D + teleplus 2x.
So it was 600 x 2 x 1.6 = 1920mm haha
I guess I need a extension tube to shorten the focus distance

Let me tell you something...

On 9th September... I joined a group to go shooting at Jurong Bird Park..........

Thanks to Daniel who kind enough to pick me up in the morning and also sent me home at night.. otherwise, I'd probably have to take cab... just like her..

During the day.. I've learnt a lot.. like how to take macro of birds

After the trip, I quickly uploaded my photos but found out that Clubsnap was down!! I'm so sad

and finally Clubsnap is back! I'm happy again!!
