Teaching the boy the finer art of a good water fight in Eli Creek Fraser Island. He has not quite got it yet, the return volley saw the bucket full of water and the bucket hit me square in the face:D, we have the aim down, now for technique

In our backyard the kangaroo paws
and the grevilleas blossom
a wattle bird covets their nectar.

Top photo, what camera and lens did you use?:D

Thankyou Ausfree...It's a shot I'm pleased with. I only had a moment to take it and it is one of a series of 5 taken.
It was taken with a Canon 7D with the Canon 70-300mm EF f/4-5.6L IS USM lens. That lens is pretty much welded to this body.:D
The camera was on one of the custom settings set with aperture priority at f/8 and auto ISO. The resulting shutter speed was 1/500 sec and ISO 800. The focal length was 300 mm at a distance of about 8 m. The raw file was processed with DxO Optics Pro V9 a little bit of local contrast applied, de-noised and output sharpened and cropped from 3:2 to 5:4 for the reduced resolution image shown here.
The thing that worked was the reflected sunlight off the sandstone paving out of shot to the lower right illuminating the birds underside...without that it would have been a dull shot. Also there is just enough depth of field from the aperture setting to make the bird stand out from the background without turning that background into mush.

I blew it up for you :)
The first attachment you posted was smaller with a frame around it and looked like it had been really over worked in post process (well on my screen anyway) as there was also a lot of noise in it.
the one I have blown up for you looks like a much much better picture...:)

Thanks dullbird, the first was off instagram, the last was a jpeg from the original HDR.
Howd you blow it up?
