You can,t improve on those ,nick, were they taken through your bins or scope.
They were taken through my scope.Unfortunatly I cut the legs of the best Stonechat pic, but put it on the blog anyway. I had gone for a Little Owl that sits out every day, but sods law when I took my scope it wasn't there.
They don't all turn out that good. The other day I must have taken 80 pictures of the Tufted Ducks at Cold Edge Dams and only 2 or 3 were any good.The binocular shots are not that good and prove very difficult even with my home made addaptor.
A proffessional photograpgher once said that if he got 1 or 2 usable shots of a roll of ilm then he was happy. so therefore if a pro only gets 4 out of 72 then you should be more than happy. Carry on shooting!!
Copies are available at £6.00 each from the GO local store at Woodlesford, Pellon price . Hopefully they will also be available at the Fox and Goose Hebden Bridge ,
