These are just fantastic Gasman how do you do them?
Do you have a long lens?
Since cameras went digital I have never really found out to do the F stops and things .
Thank you Muddy.
For wildlife, I use my Nikon D500 with a 500PF prime lens.
There are lots of free training videos on youtube regarding photography and one of my favourites is a guy named Mike Browne. He is based in Hampshire and teaches in an easy manner. Have a look here https://www.photographycourses.biz/videos
That Woodpecker is beautiful isn't it. I don't think I have ever seen one in the wild, let alone photograph it.
Thanks LD. G S Woodpeckers are quite common here in the UK and are always great to see. Check out your local reserves sightings online, take some binoculars and go find them
Brilliant shots gasman. I don't know how you do it.
That's very kind mate and thank you. Fieldcraft is the most important thing. Knowing where your subject might be and trying to remember its call / song really helps too. Having lots of patience is a must with all aspects of wildlife photography and of course, lots of luck
