Back by popular demand.
I've had quite a few requests to add more of the shots I took as part of the mini series of robins feeding their chicks.

This is THE last upload of the series folks. Apologies to all previous visitors of the gallery who've seen several of the robins so far.

for this particular shot, i used maximum aperture to throw the entire foreground and background out of focus which also allowed for a really fast shutter speed to avoid camera shake.

I promise guys, this is the last one.

Thanks to all of you who've looked and commented on previous uploads, and thanks too for all of the kind messages and requests to continue the uploads.

x2 TC used on the 70-200 and pulled right into 400mm focal length.

Cheers
Martin

Hi Martin,
What a fantastic robin in the eating process!
A great capture in time adorned with marvellous lighting and, of course, accurate sharpness.
A lovely composition and just the right position to admire the bird from below.
A clean presentation and an artistic one.
Well done

Francis Xavier
