RE: Photographing Raptors With Phoblographer - The Buzzard 📷
Absolutely wonderful images Alexander. Will share your Back Button Focusing tip with a friend here in Sydney, who photographs some of our native birds. Lovely to connect with you now too.
That's great, I hope he finds the tip useful. It can take a little getting used to at first, but the results are worth it.
Sure to @phoblographer. Would have resteemed your article but saw it too late. Will share on my FB Page for 'creatives'though.
My friend recently went to Central Australia on a Photography Workshop. Nothing build as a 'Hide' in the middle of the outback. So they used 'huddling techniques' ~ The birds apparently don't recognize the 'huddle' as being humans trying to 'capture' them.
Thanks for sharing my work, and that "huddle technique is interesting". It makes sense as birds readily identify us by our outline. I never find myself in a group situation without a hide so I probably won't get a chance to try it.
Maybe one day I'll get the chance to visit the Australian outback and give it a go : )
