Ringeltaube / Wood Pigeon - a photo on Flickriver

            Wie jedes Jahr nisten Ringeltauben in der Fichte in meinem Garten. Glück für mich, so fällt das eine oder andere Foto ab. Es gibt dort eine Sichtachse bei der die Tauben vor einem Busch meines Nachbarn vorbeifliegen. So habe ich anstelle eines Hauses mit seinen rechtwinkligen Formen und Flächen die grünen Blätter im Hintergrund und erzeuge die Illusion mitten in der Natur zu sein. Weil die Tauben ziemlich groß sind brauche ich die maximale Brennweite meines Objektivs nicht und kann außerdem mit Blende 5.6 fotografieren, was dem AF zugute kommt. Bei der Beleuchtung hat mir heute zusätzlich noch der Saharasand in der Luft geholfen: er hat sich wie eine große Streuscheibe vor die Sonne gelegt und das Licht schön diffus verteilt.

Like every year, wood pigeons nest in the spruce tree in my garden. Lucky for me, one or two photos stand out for me. There is a line of sight where the pigeons fly past my neighbor's tree.So instead of a house with its rectangular shapes and angles, I have the green leaves in the background and can create the illusion of being in the middle of nature. Because the pigeons are quite large, I don't need the maximum focal length of my lens and I can also shoot at aperture 5.6, which benefits the AF. Furthermore the Sahara sand in the air helped me with the lighting today: it placed itself in front of the sun like a large diffuser and distributed the light nicely.
