Ruby Tuesday


This photo was taken with my new toy, that 50-500 mm telephoto lens. I can't wait until soccer season gets here and I can get action shots of the oldest grand daughter from across the field.

What a NICE toy! It sure helped you get in close to the cardinal.

Ralph said...

Cardinals are such stylish birds, and your new toy sure makes the diminutive bird appear bigger than life. A beautiful bird in a great shot!

Wonderful photo!!! I'm looking at a telephoto lens for my new Nikon D60 ... What kind of camera do YOU use and how much did that lens set you back?
Hugs and blessings,

Great shot and oh yeah, the new toy is gonna make for some great shots at the soccer games!

Robin said...

Excellent! Very vibrant and well framed!

Us Robin's might be a little jealous of those pesky birds though! We might be bigger but our "red breasts" are more a dusky brown, (sigh)...But Cardinal is harder and more labor intensive to spell than Robin so I'll quit whining!

Beateous pic!
