Finally moved into our new place, and got the internet setup today, so uploaded a couple of pics  Hopefully we'll get a bit more wildlife in the garden later in the year, just got a fat pigeon and Terry the squirrel at the moment!

300mm zoom  This is why I need a bigger lens  55mm doesn't cut the mustard when doing stuff like this

tbf didn't even notice the red bit was still on there, would of cropped it otherwise.
The squirrel ones were taken through the patio doors too, so quite happy with how crisp they've turned out.
I was doing some CSI techniques, checking the reflection in his eye to see if I could see me taking the picture. Kinda can, modern technology hey...
Need to get myself a remote to take some star trails now. Didn't realise I could only do a 30 sec exposure otherwise, stupid thing. Only £20 to get it today, or £15 to have it delievered... looks like i'm off into town, fingers crossed for a clear night!

The second pic I rasied the contrast massively lost a bit of detail but got the colour brighter, and i'm even tempted to get it as a canvas for the new place.
