Rainbow lorikeets - how to get better shots?
Hi guys
Here are five Rainbow Lorikeet pics that I took on morning in rock Hampton a few weeks back I am wondering what works and what is wrong with each shot they all look over exposed now, and they are obviously cropped (can only fit the camera body, the 17-85 and the 50mm in the brief case with the overnight pair of jocks and socks) Being on a bridge at gum tree height was good though. Thanks one  two  three  four  five  whizzzz, there goes life again.....
But now captured on a Canon 40D with bits http://www.flickr.com/photos/wazonthehill/
Re: Rainbow lorikeets - how to get better shots?
to me the first four are a bit busy....on my screen they look a little dull, maybe lacking saturation
Re: Rainbow lorikeets - how to get better shots?
Also i'd try and separate the lorikeets from the background. There are a few ways to do it, but that and the saturation are probably the two things that would make these photos nicer

......... for reference, here are some samples of better lorikeet shots

Time of day and light quality and fill flash are suggestions, as well as lens choice you indicted yourself. First image is my pick of those posted.
