The latest post in my series of 'From The Window'.
As the tree outside of the lounge window is in full flower now, I thought it would be a good opportunity to shoot some birds amongst the blossom. Although its never a great idea to shoot through double glazing, which usually means a lot of post shooting work with software to make a reasonable finished product.

DeleteI'm so glad I scrolled down to see all of these! What wonderful birds you have! I understand the shooting through the window because if you open the door and go out, they all fly away. Here in Maine I have old fashioned windows with old fashioned storm windows on the outside. It is even more of a challenge than shooting through double glazing! I may have to come up with a new strategy for my bird photography! It certainly makes my photos very blurry!
ReplyDeleteThanks Kathie, yes the trick is to get the lens as close to the glass as possible.
