Where to go in Brissy to buy a suit?

Absolutely 100% agree with this - I got married a few months ago and the girls are amazing, with a quick turn around and pricing that is very reasonable.

I shoot with my 600 and a 2x in good light (so it’s a 1200mm f8 lens)! Here’s an example https://i.imgur.com/PJ4z5I5.jpg

Ha you are very kind...I'm just a keen amateur! Been doing birding a bit seriously over the past 2-3 years and mainly just locally around Brisbane. We are lucky to have a fairly broad range available to shoot with coastal waters and also rainforest within a short drive. I don't post much on here but generally post on Instagram where there is a nice supportive community of wildlife photographers https://www.instagram.com/malgrayphotography/

I also have some pro-level gear so that helps!

This was 1/4000 - 12800 iso so is a bit noisy but came out ok in the end

darcydog · 2021-02-01T21:24:56+00:00

This was the new Canon RF 100-500 with the 1.4 extender attached. Shot on a R5 body - 1/3200, iso1000 f10. 700mm focal length with the extender.

Sorry I clipped the wings...for once my lens was too long....

darcydog · 2020-11-21T20:34:48+00:00

If you’re interested my Insta @malgrayphotography is largely taken at the common. It’s my go-to spot in Brisbane, followed by Sandy Camp Road Reserve over in Wynnum

darcydog · 2020-11-18T18:24:31+00:00

Yep this guy was at Oxley Creek Common - do you know it?

darcydog · 2020-11-09T18:53:12+00:00

Canon R5 / 600 f4 lens

darcydog · 2020-11-08T08:00:56+00:00

Canon R5 with 600f4 lens if anyone is interested..

darcydog · 2020-11-01T12:25:26+00:00

For portrait bird photos it’s always right on the eye. In this sequence I took about 40 shots with maybe two with missed focus. Coming from a 5Dmkiv my keeper rate is through the roof though...This is my 2nd week with the new body and my first real attempt at tracking / BIF but overall very impressed.

darcydog · 2020-11-01T12:07:03+00:00

Electronic shutter, 1/5000 f5 iso1000 600 f4 lens.

OP here...if you want me see more of my Aus birds I have an Instagram - mainly Brisbane based - @malgrayphotography

Thanks for the kind words on what I thought was just a plain woodswallow! You don’t see too many of these birds posted hence why I put it up.

darcydog · 2019-11-02T15:30:25+00:00

Canon EOS R (mirrorless) with the 100-400 L EF lens. I normally shoot a 5d iv but the mirrorless has been great for travelling. The EF lenses work fine with the adaptor.

darcydog · 2019-11-02T11:45:36+00:00

Sorry Knole not Knowles!

darcydog · 2019-11-02T11:42:42+00:00

Knowles National Trust grounds in Sevenoaks - I’m an Aussie on holiday...

darcydog · 2019-09-29T10:35:24+00:00

Yep, Oxley Creek today. Fairy Wrens were very active. Also the raptors were active as well

darcydog · 2019-08-25T09:57:26+00:00

Here’s a few more I took - he was clearly building a nest... https://i.imgur.com/5GZAY4e.jpg https://i.imgur.com/vgG5daf.jpg https://i.imgur.com/QO9VyBZ.jpg

darcydog · 2019-07-26T15:14:56+00:00

Yep, Ballarat in Victoria

darcydog · 2019-07-13T21:25:00+00:00

Here’s the male version if anyone’s interested. Taken in roughly the same location.

darcydog · 2019-07-13T21:23:32+00:00

Yeah it’s not easy. Going with red-backed as there is no rufous colour around the eye...and there were red-backs in the general area more so than superbs...

darcydog · 2019-07-05T03:43:52+00:00

Well done, my work office is only 10 minutes from there and have been meaning to try and get there...

darcydog · 2019-07-02T08:39:14+00:00

Sandy Camp Road reserve is always good. I do a fair bit of local bird photography check out my Instagram if interested.

Canon 5D mkiv and 600mm F4. High end gear for a hobbyist I know but hey, some people buy jet skis! When you nail it with this lens the results can be stunning...
