Потрясающее качество портретов!

Very impressive! Makes me wonder what lens you used.

Beautiful, sharp images of rather small birds.

Lovely images. Nice sharp subjects and smooth no intrusive backgrounds. Nice job.

Wow such detail and colors are great well done.

Awesome - what lens and camera combo?

Thanks for that. I take that as high praise.

As primarily a birder for over 40 years and not a photographer I think I have a good idea what the true plumage colors are under natural light.

If nothing else I try hard to achieve true lighting ambiance and color accuracy. It's so easy to add a lot of false "pop" in PP.

Ideally what I think I see is what I hope you get.

I shoot mostly with a 560mm FL scope not a conventional telephoto. Some of my old files like the Grosbeak were shot in JPG with a DL. Now I shoot with a K20D in RAW only.

Outstanding Wildman.
Our mulberries are gone,orioles have turned to the grape.

Beautiful captures, with great detail and colors. It is very nice of you to post true-to-life pictures, not heavily processed.

I wonder how do you attach the camera to the scope?

Out in the woods I have seen the Orioles eating wild black-capped raspberries.

With a T ring, T ring adaptor and about 60mm of extension. About 40 bucks total cost.
