Nature Bird on a Stick

Bird on a Stick · 02:29 PM

Shot in the shade of the house, I'm not wild about the pose, but I really like the background.

I like it Gary. You used the K-30? Which lens and what settings, if I may ask?

Thanks. I used the Sigma 170-500mm APO

The background is lovely! All that exif data and it doesn't say time of day... but looks like evening light? Sweet looking bird too

Dang, I guess I didn't highlight enough when I went to copy it. Thanks, Tess. It was, indeed, evening.

Thanks, nice to see what the k-30 and lens can do at 500mm.
