A Couple Of Red Birds In My Back Yard

[Scott Whaley]

I took a few minutes this afternoon to shoot some bird photos in my back yard. I'm still trying to get used to my new eyes while using manual focus. I's shooting with my Canon 5d mkiv with a Sigma 150-600 Sports lens and a 2X extension. Shooting in manual mode as well as manual focus using a tripod. Here are a few I was able to get. It feels good being able to see what I am photographing.

Lovely! Looks like a male house finch along with the male cardinals. Nice captures!

You are correct. Thanks!

I think house finches are so underrated. Looks like the lens is serving you well.

20/20 vision in both eyes. I had the surgery about 6 months ago and I am getting some blurring in my left eye a little. I guess I do need to use some eye drops.

after surgery did you need to use anti inflammation drops.. i have been using them 3 times a day for 5 weeks...... maybe you need a new appointment with eye dr to check 6 months post surgery.. If your eye is a bit watery you may need dry eye drops.. they do help alot..ps 20 20 awesome.. i am 20-25
