Hi
I joined today - so please go easy on me
Attached is a piccie that I have posted in the gallery that I took on Saturday morning whilst the wife was out shopping.
I was looking after the children but set up my Olympus C740UZ on the kitchen window sill on my Jessops flexipod.
My 3yr old son had made a bird pudding at playgroup which I had strung up on a small apple tree.
I was trying to get shots of blue tits and great tits without success - difficult to take shots holding a baby!
Anyway our local Robin visited - and this is the snap I attach. Question how can I improve?
The camera was set with ISO100, aperture set at lowest on full zoom which was F3.7, shutter speed automatic and worked out at 1/50 to 1/60.
One thing I think I did wrong was failing to spot meter on the bird - I think the camera has used the pudding for exposure.
Look forward to comments
Martin
