Pied Wagtail

Not had the camera out much lately so have been going through some images I took at the latter part of last year, and came across these.

Excellent shots. Really like the pose in the first image. Beautiful bird.

Excellent poses, well exposed and nice and sharp.

I agree with all the professionals comments above A&B and can add that you've nailed the framing, giving a good sense of scale as it poses in that grass.

Thanks guys. My first thoughts were that I had over sharpened them but they are more or less SOOC with a crop. From memory I was laying on my stomach about 5 metres away so that probably gave me a bit of added stability.

Laying on your stomach!! I haven't done that for many years. Easy to do but getting back up can take its toll so that's an exercise I stay away from. I do have the Canon SX-50 with an articulated screen which can obtain the same low down look, thus avoiding injury and embarrassment.

I know what you mean. It's not the lying down but the getting up that would be embarrasing!
