Brown-hooded Kingfisher
I love how the bokeh helps to emphasize the bird
It was already early evening and the sun was gone, so besides pushing the limits of the camera, I’m happy with the photo’s sharpness and colour.

Thanks for posting, Renate! The image is well-exposed, showcasing ample detail where it matters most, especially the bright, lively eye. While the background is slightly busy, the sharpness in the facial area and the impressive feather detail create a strong visual impact. The colour palette is harmonious, and the crop complements the composition nicely.

Thank you for sharing your stunning image, Albertus. My apologies for the delayed response. The photograph is exceptionally sharp, capturing ample detail in the lion. The exposure is perfectly balanced, and the crop enhances the composition beautifully. Your low-angle perspective, using the lion’s kill as a prominent anchor in the foreground, c…Read More

#avian photographyDepth of field for sharp focus depends on several factors, including the focal length of the lens and the selected aperture. As you increase your aperture number (go from a small number/wide open aperture to a higher number/small aperture opening) your depth of field for a given situation will…Read More

Hadeda chicks
This Hadeda family calls our garden home. They love to sit on the garden wall in the late afternoon to preen. They do an amazing job to control the insect population as is evident from the mud on their beaks. Some people harbour ill feeling towards these birds because of their load call. I find them fascinating and they are quite…Read More

Thanks for sharing Renate👍 Totally agree with you. Your shot is well exposed and sharp. Just a pity the one that’s not really part of the story towards the right front is a bit distracting. But that’s nature for you🤩

The image is sharp where it matters most, and the dramatic angle works beautifully, keeping the viewer’s attention focused on the subject’s well-exposed eye. The natural framing created by the tree’s branches and the treat adds visual interest. Overall, the image is clean, engaging, and well-presented.
