"Manual"
Photo shot on local trails with a friend of mine. I was trying out action photography - quite happy with one.
Was done with my APS-C camera and I switched to a FF soon after that. More photos are to come.
Any feedback is welcome!

Tiny Visitor
I was recently back in the woods trying to take some wildlife photos. Sadly, I barely came across any birds that day and whenever I did, they were gone before I could even focus on them.

A Meal for the Nest
Caught this house sparrow in a bush. In his beak, you can see what looks like his meal for the evening.

Success removing chain link fence
The current AI contest made me revisit a photo I took in 2008 that I've been trying to save from a chain link fence.

It was July 6, 2026, around 6:30 p.m. The sun was settling low over Port Orchard, and the wildlife seemed to settle with it.

dope!
I really dig it. I think the contrast between background and the subject really makes the subject pop. You have enough motion blur to create the feeling of speed. You caught the manual at a great time. (It always helps when your buddy knows how to, good on him). The only thing could nit pick on is the composition seems slightly off. It’s not terrible by any means. But with the slope of the ground, I’m curious to see what the subject would look like more towards the middle of the photograph. Great job man! You should be proud of this one.
Thanks Rob! Was my second try (and rather first real try) on this kind of pictures. Great to hear such a kind feedback.
Yes - composition was quite hard on this one, but next time I shoot I will definitely try to move him more towards the middle :)
