– another bird keep calling us while we looking for ours target, but I still really to see and photograph the fruit-dove which is so beautiful .. and share this because some one lazy move got the white background instead .. move move move .. choose choose choose

– 这鸟一直叫不停,我们在等我们目标鸟。*(当然有拍到啦)可是,我还是很喜欢果鸠。轻轻松松拿下啦。这照片还主要,做出来让朋友知道。要选背景就要动。不要站在同一地方。

update 202401

– another bird suppose to hope come to feeding station but not, but we managed to heard and found the bird. Again this is another reason setup customize button for my R3 which can shoot in complex environment (just like this) point the focus points (I using 5 point) on to any part of the bird and eye will be lock focus ..very useful and suitable for people like shooting wildbird in move

– 我们以为可以在喂食点看到,可是等了一个早上都没声音。我们没等,在上山路中听到也蛮容易找到(有神器嘛)。还有这是个好教材,我的CANON R3, 为了快速拍到懂得鸟通常都是开全福/中部区域对焦(鸟眼)可是在这种情况是应该很难找到的(有时也可以)。可是我选了其中一个钮,放了5点对焦(鸟眼)。通常找不到后,我很快用这个对焦钮碰鸟的任何一个部位。立刻就可以找到鸟眼了。。真的很好用!

– another example to show .. my picture is different ? I am sure many say, why so bad quality, not an open picture, bla bla … but do you know ? most of my situation  … the bird is in the forest, I need to make sure my guests have a view of it and gave them good angle than only my turn to look for “leftover” angle to have a photo … no complaint ahhhhh …give a like please haha

– and normally we see it mean we need to look for other bird soon .. not stay there waiting ..

– 这是我要讲2件事的一张照片,1. 热成像仪 (迟点才讲,等我有空吧)

2. 我的照片,我拍的90%照片都是与带客人时拍的。70%是观鸟,我要先让客人们看到或给他们最好角度。。。。yes yes 后才可以再找角度拍。所以照片都不锐,角度不好。。。哈哈,下次不要投诉啦。。你试试就知道,我的照片都得来不易的。拿着单筒+脚架,背相机一天不行10000-20000步。来个个赞吧。。。还有,通常看到后我们就不会再找这鸟+多看。我也不会有多时间拍。
