You know how much I love birds... :giggle: I captured this little beauty whilst camping at the Murray river with family & friends.. I spent a lot of time bush hiking with my beloved camera, snapping away happily... I hope you enjoy it!

EDIT: Woah... thank you all for the support here! I'm so happy you like it. I've been getting soo many notes and questions it's hard to answer them all...

Firstly it is a real photograph, I always shoot in the warmest White Balance, I usually shoot these birds as sunset because that's when they begin to come out... And the colors are so much warmer then. I used a telephoto lens as I can't get close to these birds, but the lens isn't responsible for finding, and being creative with these photos. Don't always think it's the camera that is 100% responsible for creative photos, a lot of thought/creativity goes into them!


:heart:

May I ask which lens you used? It created a lovely bokeh! You really know how to get the best out of your equipment!
Absolutely beautiful :meow:
