No flash just natural daylight used.Equipment
Nikon D6000 and Nikon AF-S 55-200mm f/4-5.6G IF-ED DXInspiration
I love birds and my Aunt loved Robins in particular. I believe Robins are spiritual animals and that was my aunt saying hello. This robin sat for a while and watched me as I watched in and it wasn't shy and let me take lots of photosEditing
I cropped the image and brightened it slightly just using gimp.In my camera bag
Nikon D6000 , standard Nikon lens, Nikon AF-S 55-200mm f/4-5.6G IF-ED DX (which o call my stalker lens) macro lenses, filter lenses, additional flash and filters for the standard flash to soften the brightness.Feedback
Just be patient, sometimes they move so fast you can't get the shot. Have patience, wait for a while and take lots of pictures, perhaps in burst mode so you can get a shot of they move.
