The other half just got her first DSLR so has been taking loads of photos of everything, She just got light room also lol.

Here are some of her Animal pics :)















 
That is what the 600mm f/4.0 is for;)

The listing is really good on those. I am struggling with my BIF shots because even on a sunny day with blue sky the sky sky tends to get blown when exposing the dark feathers, or I expose for the sky and get no details in the bird. A CPL helps but I can't afford to loose 2 stops when I am already at f/8 and trying to maintain at least 1/500th .
Shooting at sunrise and sunset with the sun behind you helps a bunch but often that isn't possible.

Yeah I've used Lightroom to tone down the luminosity of the blue and to boost the saturation of blue alone so I don't have to over saturate the whole pic etc.

Lucky the sun was behind me a little there so it wasn't so bad considering it was 1-2pm on a hot day.

1/500 isn't too hard on a tripod which I normally use but here I was handholding so I wasn't sure how the shots would turn out.
