"This cute little bird let me rub the top of its head with my finger, and bumped its head into my finger when I stopped because it wanted more. The bird posed for me nicely and allowed me to use my macro lens for some photos. Australian Fig Parrot at Kuranda Birdworld, Australia."

Ein Feldhase sitzt aufrecht inmitten einer saftig grünen Wiese. Das Tier ist fast frontal zur Kamera ausgerichtet, der Kopf leicht zur Seite geneigt. Die langen Ohren stehen aufrecht, die Augen sind weit geöffnet und aufmerksam. Ein Grashalm ragt quer über seinen Mund – der Hase scheint gerade beim Fressen gestört worden zu sein oder kaut noch. Um ihn herum ist hohes, teils unscharfes Gras, das die Szene weich einrahmt. Der Hintergrund ist ruhig und gleichmäßig grün, was den Hasen klar in den Fokus rückt. Die Stimmung ist ruhig, natürlich und leicht verspielt.

Piercing gaze. A wild fox approaches with both curiosity and caution — every step calculated, every look intense. Moments like these feel timeless.

Mauersegler leben den größten Teil ihres Lebens in der Luft und schlafen teilweise auch fliegend.

Common swifts live most of their life in the air and sometimes sleep while flying.

I cannot begin to tell you how much I looooooove robins. They are so adorable and so cute!
And I'm very, very happy with finally having been able get a couple of shots of them that I actually like. :D

As I was telling you earlier, I borrowed a Sony Alpha 6000 to see if I like it better than my old Sony DSC-RX100 which I never use anymore because it's so frustrating. Guess what, I don't like the Alpha 6000 any better. It feels nice, but the autofocus is as fickle as the RX-100 one and everything is blurry, even when I used a tripod. But of course you only see this later on your computer (I haven't installed any apps to transfer images because it's not my camera). 🤡
I had really hoped that the autofocus experience is a bit better with a new model, but I suppose there's no way around a specialized (macro) lens. Both cameras are great for landscapes, but when it comes to close-ups or macro, they don't work for me. (I'm aware that the problem is behind the camera)

Is there any camera brand/model you would recommend for beginners?

The only photo I really liked #sooc is this #animalPortrait of Henna. 🐔 We will get two new #hens on Saturday morning, so be prepared to see more #chicken photos soon!

The image shows a close-up of a light-coloured Faverolles hen, facing towards the camera and slightly to the left. The hen has fluffy, cream and light brown feathers, particularly around its neck and breast. It has a prominent red comb on top of its head and red wattles beneath its beak. Its eye is a clear, orange-brown colour.
The background is softly blurred, suggesting an outdoor setting with green grass and some indistinct shapes, possibly other chickens or garden elements. The lighting appears to be natural daylight. The focus is sharp on the hen's head and upper body, highlighting the texture of its feathers and its facial features. Another hen, with similar colouring, is partially visible behind the main subject.

A couple of fluffy little goslings on their Sunday stroll through a botanic garden.

Not in the photos: Their fiercly protective mum, who managed to chase a grown ass adult away for trying to touch one of them. Lesson learned, I suppose! :D

Aquarellkurs nass-in-nass: Dackel.
War ein ziemlicher Kampf den Kerl bei dem warmen Wetter mittags nicht vorzeitig austrocknen zu lassen. Mit dem Gesicht bin ich nicht so glücklich, Körper geht so. #animalportrait #watercolor #mastoart #aquarell

A white tiger lounges in the shade — regal and relaxed. A reminder of the rare beauty found in protected wildlife sanctuaries. I’ve got more scenes like this coming soon.

A white tiger with light beige stripes lies on grass in the shade, looking calmly toward the camera. The lighting highlights its muscular build and rare coloring.
