I have these wrens around my house but I find them very 'flighty' and rather hard to frame, what lens did you use for this shot - it's excellent.

"J Davis" D700 Sigma 50-500 @500mm ISO 500 1000s @f9...... shot from inside the car on a bush track and hand held....... this image would be about 35-40% of original frame

This is a great image - nice sharp focus on the bird, no distracting foliage and good bokeh.

A calendar cover!It's interesting to note that the birds eye is almost dead centre of the image space. I think this was a device much used by Rembrandt when painting his portraits (if my memory serves me faithfully).

...... always try to centre the focal point, this being the eye, and the rest flows from there, unless the focal point is part of an overall view...... then off centre
