Wuahh!!! It's a loooong walk for me just to reach meeting point :sweat:

 

[Bluestrike]

Well.. the weather today ... well at least for the early part of the morning. Anyway, hope that everyone enjoy the day as I have.


And until the next time, keep the camera shooting... go go go

Though it drizzled for a while this morning,
the rain clouds kept away for a few hours
which made the trip to Botanic Garden possible.

A great start on a saturday morning.

:thumbsup:
I will like to thank the friendly organiser, Adam Goi
for organising this photo shoot and
also for giving me a brief Q&A session.

 

[Bluestrike]

Hi guys.

... was very surprised to see a large crowd showing up. Sorry that I was late as earlier I had to rush my brother to A & E because we suspected he's down with dengue fever but thank God the blood test showed that he's fine.

Sorry again that I wasn't of much help yesterday ... was tied between the thoughts helping those who needed my advice (don't have much to give anyway ... heh ...) and shoot some for myself as I haven't been to BG since September. Sadly, in the end I didn't do much for both.

If I've disappointed you or did not meet your expectations, please accept my apologies ... will plan and execute them better the next time!

 

[L.Lee]

Thank you for organizing this event and :thumbsup: for some of the useful tips. Bluestrikes had been very helpful too by pointing out some of the things I should do. As a result, I was able to capture some decent shots. I enjoyed the outing and will certainly participate again, if my schedule permits. Cheers

The result of Adam and Bluestrike's coaching yielded two satisfactory shots (personally), also my first attempt shooting sunbirds:

Unprocessed except cropping

Unprocessed, except cropping

Comment...comment...to help me improve.

Well the 2nd pic can do with a better background.

busy...
haven't uploaded the photos yet

 

[L.Lee]

You are right, the background is messy and distracting.
Anyone has tip to share on how to avoid such messy background in that
crucial moment knowing that the bird would not wait?
Could the background be blurred out further with the camera setting?
How? Thnx

 

[ortega]

nice pix
can I ask what was the focal lenght of the lens used?
seeing your pix make me want to try to shoot bird also.
