Hi,
My name is Simon. I'm a relatively new photography enthusiast, and have found a new love for photographing birds, more specifically birds in flight.
I have a Canon 7D along with a 70-200mm F4 L and a recently purchased 400mm F5.6 L which after reading info on here, I decided was a must have!
Other lenses in a shared arsenal are the Sigma 50-500 EX DG, Canon 50mm f1.4, Canon 100-400mm L, Sigma 50mm f2.8 Macro along with a host of accessories given that others in the family are also keen photographers.
Have been photographing birds for about a year, mainly gulls and other lake dwelling varieties. I am also a big fan of setting a tripod up in the garden for hours on end and capturing the smaller garden birds.
Wanted to join a community to hopefully further my knowledge in the subject matter and hopefully meet like minded people with whom I can share knowledge and experience.
Look forward to being an active member on here and pleased to meet you all
Simon
