    My attempt at 'BIF'. A red kite over North Herefordshire this week. Think I need a pro zoom lens to get this right, the clarity of the image for me is disappointing. Will start saving now... Still, really nice to see these magnificent birds making such a good recovery in the UK.

    Micro 4/3 Olympus build quality?

    Thanks for your replies. I've used Olympus for the past 14 years without any issues (other than my 12-60mm Zuiko Four Thirds lens developing a fault with the aperture, which is a common issue with that lens). I was completely shocked at this happening to a lens used for 3 months, from new...

    Micro 4/3 Olympus build quality?

    I bought my Olympus OM-D E-M1 II Kit (F2.8 12-40 pro lens) back at the beginning of January this year, new from HDEW. Imagine my horror tonight when I realised the seal had torn & come free from the lens - so much for it being a Pro lens too! Have emailed HDEW as will be covered under...

    A pair of dunnocks spotted in our front garden. Photos taken through the living room window, so a bit hazy due to the age of the glass... According to the internet, they are more widely known as hedge sparrows, despite not being a member of the sparrow family.

    & please don't laugh too much - the ISS travelling from West to East over North Herefordshire tonight at 8.10pm. My first effort at this and quite pleased with it as had to take it all the way to a 2 second exposure, which was hand held.

    This one was uploaded through my phone onto Instagram - using the Instagram app I cropped the image and applied structure and sharpening. I really need to get back into post processing images properly. Working from home for my employer on my own home PC means I don't want to use it in the...
