I didn't think you were allowed to publish pictures of young offenders....

I like it.... I am not very knowledgeable but I think it is a tad too bright... I need lessons....

Hey Ron, are these film images or digital? Nice shot.

Digital, Panasonic G1.

Are you singling this robin out? It doesn't look like he's offending. Where's the shot of him actually stealing something? Are you specist against robins? I may have to report you the ACLU. Oh, wait...you're in Canada...

Jesting aside, nice photo Ron!

Look @ the left foot.

The lighting was difficult, the bird was back-lit casting the chest in shadow so to bring up the detail in the chest I had to brighten the whole image. Some folk here would do it differently that are experienced in post processing but my skill is very limited.

Digital, Panasonic G1.

Do you use an adapter to mount the FD lens to the Panasonic?

Yes, I have adapters for M39, M42, PK, Minolta MC/MD & Canon FL/FD. I really like to work with the older manual lenses.

You have to get to the berries before the birds. Chipmunks keep stealing my raspberries.

I like the shot, the brightness doesn't bother me. It's not like you can do a lot of light control when you only have a second or 2 before the bird flies away.

Pft it is NOT stealing if you purposely planted the tree for use by the wildlife of the area. Need I remind you that you have spent YEARS changing a barren landscape to a habitat for wildlife? Need I remind you? huh? I think you are being spiciest! And if you ever come to America I WILL report you to the ACLU! In fact this could be a form of entrapment!

All kidding aside... Nice capture though. Very cool catching him "in the act" with that berry in his clutches!

I'm keeping an eye on you Ron. Goes and makes a wildlife haven with all the food they can eat, and then busts them when they do so. You sir are a sick man. May a thousand Birds of Paradise infest your undergarments...
