Grey Fantail

Took this on my recent first outing with the D800, Nikon 300mm + 1.4 T/C, ISO800, f5.6 at 1/800s

Well done Cage. Did you use a tripod or was that hand held?

They're more than a little bit sweet those Grey Fantails, bossy & full of character.  And very busy laugh - great job catching one while it was still!

Thanks all for the kind remarks.

This was shot off a tripod from about 15m so it's a pretty big crop.

And I know what you mean Annie. This little fellow was on pep pills and was feeding, so only about 2-3 seconds to compose and get the shot.

Cheers
