Sigma 18-50 does wildlife

[saddler]

Not the obvious choice for wildlife but if you can get close enough...

The pics were taken through a window hence the slightly 'washed out' effect. What is the best way of solvng this problem?

Any comments and suggestions welcome

looks much better mrgrubby, one of the reasons for the lightness is that the sun sines directly onto that window all day so that doesnt help. The window itself is an elderly double glazed unit with some moisture trapped between so again not very helpful. The lens used was the 18-50 F2.8 and ive found it to be very sharp.

I'll play with the levels on some of the others ive got and see what I can do.

matty, the lens was right up against the glass and I live in a first floor flat so guess i'll have to rely on the wonders of post-processing.

I think this looks a bit better
