Robin
by Gary Martin

Penclacwydd, Llanelli

I loved the lightness and colour of the bokeh on this shot which made the robin stand out. Shot with the Canon 100-400 f/4.5-5.6L IS lens with me resting the camera on a tree branch for support at the slowish shutter speed.


Some of the other contenders are here.


other sizes: small medium original auto

They are all great, but this is my favorite. Great background.

Can't get much better than this, however I had to pick the Heron for my favorite.

It is hard to be best of your robins but this is certainly top drawer.

the robin stands out beautifully against the bokeh.

Wondeful lighting on the bird, accentuated by the gently light background.
