I have 3 of them somewhere in a box...been there for 10 years....might go on a search. I bought them in an antique shop in Sydney

 

If they are original and not repro they are worth quite a bit now kengillard.  The Beswick ones sell for heaps.

I'd like a set of the wembley seagulls, but can't afford them. Rare as too I would think. The beswick ducks are lovely.

Pimpy, I'm amazed at the resolution and depth of field in your bird images, and would love to know what sort of camera you're using, what resolution, and settings (if any)? Oh, and RAW or JPG?

They are all in JPG format. I have a nikon D7000  and a 300mm lens. I think all the birdbath pics were taken with an auto setting. I used photoshop to auto correct the light levels as most of these are taken late afternoon.

I like using the A priority for close up stuff. The black cockies were taken with a panasonic camera and fixed lens.

Was there a photo in particular you wanted to know about?

 

 

 

 

 

Many thanks for posting the above, Pimpy. No, there was no particular photograph in which I was especially interested, as pretty much all of them displayed the same sharp detail and depth of field, which is why I was keen to find out what camera you used.

Although I've had my Fuji S2000HD for almost 4 years now, I'm only just starting to experiment with fixed settings as opposed to simply leaving it in AUTO mode.

However, I don't know if it's just me or what, but as comprehensive as the supplied user manuals are, I still find using manual settings to be extremely time consuming, yet I'm convinced that given the time and knowledge (which I don't possess) I should be able to take photographs approaching the quality of yours. 😉

I really don't know what I'm doing. Just point, shoot and hope for the best. 🙂

I'd like to be better, but I don't have the attention span to read manuals.

I was really impressed with my nieces photos. She has a nikon d5000 I think but prefers her mothers D7000, so that's what I bought.

 

I'd like to know what camera Tende uses, her photos and colours are so crisp.

 

 

 

oops, I'm telling lies. Melissa has a D90 (or is it a D60) Great camera, but the D7000 is a newer model, and she seems to prefer it.
