Hitchcock

2007.06.09
Who let you in?

Let me see your press pass!

You better not be there when I turn around

Stop taking pictures

Are you listening to me?

Dont make me come down there!

I love birds. I like to watch them fly and hear them sing and capture them with my camera. As I'm sure you've see browsing thru my blog. But Hitchcock's The Birds still scares the pants off me! I have to say that I felt uneasy around this bird. He was definitely intimidating. Where's Spike when you need him?

Stats - D200, 70-300VR lens, ISO 100, handheld

rolpa This bird might sort Spike out. He has intent. Watch out!

pattyb These are great! I'm with you Lisa, The Birds is major scary!! Spike was probably grooming his mighty paws! ; )

photopoet Hitchcock is awesome and I'm so impressed by your ability to handhold that lens with no visible shake.

vollenda Thanks :)

The lens I'm using, the 70-300VR lens is a vibration-reduction lens. It has a built in stabilization that reduces camera shake. It's also not a heavy lens. My macro lens is solid and feels like a brick. But the VR lens is a very user friendly zoom. I just have to be careful about the shift it does when it stabilizes. It sometimes alters the composition.

youlookmahvelous Great lshots and this conjurs up memories for me. I watched the birds as a kid and let's just say I did not have pleasant dreams for a while.

PaulGraham great movie
stunning shots love them

kangshung Great set - very sharp. I love my VR lens too - certainly dispenses with the need for a tripod in many settings. I suspect this guy thought you were trying to feed him and couldn't work out why you didn't just hand it over.

Carley Great set and great captions! These shots are stunning.... and the bird definitely has attitude and is intimidating!
