CommentThis image taken in a thicket of Blackberrys and dense scrub and the birds were very active which meant I had to crank the shutter speed up. I this case I wound it a little too much and the speed was 1/3200th which meant I had an ISO6400 which on a 7D Mk2 meant a fairly noisy image, Processed in On1 Photo Raw
EquipmentCanon 7D MkII with 1.4 ext.
Canon 100-400mm
560mm 1/3200th f/8 ISO6400
