Hope you heal up quickly and did not suffer a hairline fracture in that wrist.<br /><br />Photographing caged birds or anything behind an unavoidable wire fence, it is best to put the lense up flush with the bars ... you will be amazed at the difference, there will just be a bit of blurring. You need to focus on the bird not a bar though.<br /><br />I have just got a few shots of my finches that my g-daughter gave me when my heart went on strike again due to another heat wave.<br /><br />My moon shots are pure flukes, I just focus on the moon, leave the flash on and shoot on automatic. The flash makes no difference to the moon since it is far away, but tricks the camera into not over exposing.<br /><br />Hugs ArijaArijahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03720793296992474762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-617652323643666421.post-72878714439627019272010-01-28T11:27:25.121+02:002010-01-28T11:27:25.121+02:00Thanks everyone for the concern about my wrist and...Thanks everyone for the concern about my wrist and the kind comments. My wrist is a little sensitive and still wrapped; should be fine in a day or two. I am running with a torch now again!
