Two Tits

Gallery: Regional: UKNPPosted October 31, 2011259 views8 comments

For some reason quite a few birds seem to bathe next to each other quite often. It maybe some form of survival strategy. With the stupid weather at the moment they could even be mated! You don’t very often get two on the same focal plane but these two weren’t far off.

I like the blue birds on the brown background. DOF is good as well as sharpness. Nice capture.

Another great capture. You're getting the hang of this pool malarky, aren't you

Super capture John - it's not easy to get two small birds a good size in the frame and sharp.
