    Wink Playing House

    Looks like someone was looking for a mate.

    As I understand it, the male built a nest, then went looking for a mate. She came and checked it out, and apparently was checking him out as well.

    I thought they made a cute couple.

    Again, crappy quality from shooting through three panes of glass, but I got some photo's...

    We can't all be Paul Almendinger's after all...

    ...If we were, his photo's wouldn't stand out. ;-O

    Please, spare me my blushes. ;-)

    I was pleased with how well they came out. I was mildly surprised they came out as well as they did, considering that I was shooting through glass. I sat backwards on a chair and used the chair back as a rest for the camera. Seems to have worked.

    I also shot a few frames with the N80 as well. I have yet to finish that roll. Provia 100.

    BTW, my Moose Filter came in yesterday! I'm so happy! Can't wait to use it.

    Re: Dude these images rock!

    I know how you were shooting, WHICH IS WHY these images are great.

    Now had you been shooting them on my DSLR with 520 mm I would not have said " these images ROCK"

    HAHAHA I just hijacked your thread

    LOOKS TO ME like SHE makes a nest HUH???????
