Absolutely stunning chaffinch! Everything is on point here. Nice pose, razor sharp, clean background and a good forground/branch. Well done!
How is the Sigma 500? Have you bought it or trying out?

Thank you Loke. They are lovely little birds, it's hard to take a bad picture of them. I bought the Sigma 500 as soon as it hit the shelves after Sigma lent me one for a week. It's a cracking lens but it's mainly the weight and size reductions over the 200-600 that I'm most impressed by. There are quite a few images from this lens in our Sigma 500 Image Thread.

Ok, this is what I need to learn how to do. I can’t upload larger images like all of the others do. And, I need to know how to get my data to appear. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Once you upload your image you need to select it and change from thumbnail to full size image. looking at your picture above the EXIF data is there.

Very inspiring. Got to get them off the feeders and on a branch in a tree. I’ve only been doing this for 2 days.

A young moorhen on our very overgrown pool on the farm. One day it will get cleaned out although it is a haven for wildlife, especially the moorhens.
