16-NOV-2008 In Natural Light

Yellow-browed Warbler

Chong Yen campsite, Mae Wong NP, Thailand

These little leaf warblers are challenging birds to photograph. This species likes to move lower down in the trees which makes it easier compared to the ones which is higher up. Knowing how the bird moves is important and you have to anticipate where it will be and position yourself accordingly.

Since I'm not using flash (anymore) I need some light to capture this active bird and in this image there was a perfect soft light, still strong enough to get some shutter speed, still soft enough to create that special glow only soft light can.
