Who needs a D850 and 500mm lens? Just need to get close to the subject.
Lovely images Graham...especially like the egret composition.
Well I have been saying that for a long time, I just lack the field craft and patience.
A long while back I read about a native African who submerged himself in a pool where Lions came to drink, he hid with his camera somehow behind a log or something. At Sundown he managed to take a wonderful photograph of the Lions drinking which he sold for a very good price.
Well it was a tongue in cheek comment because sadly as opportunist bird photographers, as opposed to being given special access, we are always going to need extra mm.
