Changing Seasons


This photo was taken out of the kitchen window just after the snow showers started.  The colour of the backdrop looks autumnal and is a little odd with the snow.  A significant flock of goldfinches snack on my feeders a few times each day.  They favour sunflower hearts in a mesh feeder which allows many of the flock to grab seeds together.

The shutter speed was set at 1/500 sec. which was slower than what I would normally choose.  The aperture was f8 because I had the 1.4 extender on my 100-400mm EF lens (fully zoomed to 560mm).  ISO wasn't bad at 800 thanks to the bright sun which also gave the autumnal colouring.
