callistemon crunch

This month I am going to play with my Nikon 7200 - hopefully I will learn something about the camera along the way - I have a busy work couple of weeks so playing may be done in chunks.

This was a play with the new zoom lens - the bottlebrush has suddenly birst with blooms and of course the Lories come from everywhere.

Oh so bright and beautiful! The focus and details are superb. It looks awesome on black.
I like how you composed this to have the focus on his eye.
It's a FAV!
Sounds as if you are enjoying your new toy!

I get excited to see a hummingbird in the bottlebrush...these are easier to spot and look as though they'd sit still better! Just a gorgeous photo!

I have a 7200 as well so I look forward to seeing the photos you take.

@nickspicsnz any tips you can give me feel free - I have a tendency to be a bit lazy learning about the camera :)

[Nick]

@annied Oh I'm a real beginner so I'm sure you are far more knowledgeable than me. :)
