  • Another Common Bronzewing

    I came across a pair of these that let me get a bit closer. These are both the same bird - male I think. Background wasn't the best but they have come up ok with a bit of processing.

    That is quite a beautiful bird. Love the colors on the wing. Nice shot Alan.
    Fujifilm X-T5, XF16-80 f/4, XF70-300 f/4-5.6, XF23 f/2, XF35 f/2, XF150-600 f/5.6-8, and a random assortment of 35mm film cameras.

      Thanks David. From a distance they look quite drab, but up close you can see all of the colours and patterns.

    Lovely images Alan. They are a great looking bird but to me their head is too small for the body. Maybe a bit of PS magic could fix that? Just for fun of course

    A quick and dirty adjustment just for Isac I kept it fairly realistic.

    Just as well the poor bird can't see the photo.

      I was thinking of something a bit more extreme

        I was going to change the colur scheme but it already has a big enough head

      A spectacular bird Alan, well caught.

      A fancy pigeon I would say...

      I had a run in with a racing pigeon some years ago and wrote about it on my old webpage (Gone now)

      The story is on my Facebook page, I hope it's OK to post the link. If you have time to read it.....
