Tickled blue Flycatcher

[Joshi Bhavya]

Tickled blue flycatcher one of the very Rare and uncommon species in Rajkot City.(Gujarat).

what can i say about this bird, Never seen this much cooperative bird before..
as i was shooting with Tamron 70-300mm Macro. in Shade light. I was getting unsharp images due to low shutter speed. (Tamron 70-300mm not working in low light ) so i decided to attach macro lens to shoot, Now i have to go in macro range. Due to Patience approach, the distance between me and birds was only 2 Ft approx. :001_huh: He really put its faith on me.

Though Image Background is bit Distracting. but it was my first bird shoot with macro lens.

With canon 550D-100mm Macro
F:9.0
ISO:400
SS:1/80s (Sharpen)
AV mode
Big Crop.

C&C Welcomes.

Good to know you could get so close with your 100mm. Patience always pays :). Good eye contact and nice details. I liked the catch light and the composition. I am fine with the background, it is its natural habitat, you can't get clean backgrounds all the time. Thanks for sharing.

I like the eye contact. Good to know that you could move close. If it is 2 feet, why not post the full frame image? Can we see a full frame image? Thanks for sharing.
