Got hook to birds photography when I got my Sigma 150-500mm (thought birding this way is cheap, I was wrong!) in Feb 2009. Guess the Pitta in SBG and BBKF in Lower Peirce did make an impact.

While testing the DSLR, I was severely ‘poisoned’ by the clicking sound of the 3.5 fps  I ... Read More

NPX: How long have you been dabbling in nature photography? Chris- Well my photography started by accident... I was buying and selling cameras and got stuck with one that I could not or rather was not able to get rid of because of the price.
