The pictures were taken during the November 11 2008 snowstorm in Haute Provence with poor light conditions. All pictures at F/4, 1/1600s, iso 1600 and +1 or 2 ils, with the Nikon D300 and the old Nikon 300mm F/4 ED AF which requires a good tripod. The combo performed well but given the light conditions, the pictures were lightened, sharpenned and cropped with Nikon NX. The set up is shown with the feeding stands outside, comfy shooting through the window...
