Well i finally got a few moment to myself today and guess what , the sun was out So i played around with a few Blue Jays So heres one for ya Now for the bad side of my day , my Sigma 400mm wont Aoto focus anymore . I dont know if the cold weather got to it ,or a gear striped . I can hear the motor do its thing but it wont AF , on the bright side i can still use it manually

Also forgot to mention that im trying out a Velvia filter in CS2

aaargh! Sorry to hear about the AF on your lense what a nuisance, hope you get it sorted soon.

The picture is great i love those colours, great angle you have caught him at as well.

That's a beautiful shot of a blue jay!

That is a great shot Knight - love that you caught him from behind so his tail markings are visible. Normally I don't care for Blue Jays - they are more of a nuisance bird around here - but this shot could make me like them all over again.

Sorry about the Sigma - hope you can get it fixed - at least you can still use MF.

Nice image, but I think you over did the filter contrast wise.

[Knight]

Thanks for your comments gang Paulnj it is contrasty alwright but its a Velvia Filter in CS3 Beta if i get a chance l8tr ill post the non Velvia version

Oh almost forgot my 400mm started focusing again it may be a intermitent problem.
