absolutely deserved. POTW material - that's what I thought when I saw it the first time.

That's a terrific shot. Can you talk about the shot? Where did you take it? Any processing and what? I'm really curious and eager to learn more.

Of course. This was taken in my garden in the south east of England. I was in a bag hide with my camera tripod mounted waiting for any activity around my feeding station. I have not found a better way to get close enough to these small birds that to use a hide and bait the area.

Nikon D200, Nikkor 300mm AFS F/4

Not much in the way of processing apart from going through Capture NX. The background is all nature and is sunlit grass.

Cheers

Alex

Hi Kris,

The green is the sunlit grass in the next garden.
