The bird in Jean's contribution to our Free Wallpaper feature is a male Eastern Bluebird. Jean told me that when she took this photo last fall she shot it through one of her windows. It looks as if she was right up next to this bird! This is one very good photo. I'm very impressed by her photography skill.
The camera Jean used for this photo is a Canon PowerShot SX10 IS which has a 20x zoom. This is one of the best point and shoot cameras there is. I tried one of these myself not long ago and I can tell you that it is very good. It might be the best I've ever used. She picked a good one.
You can find more about Jean's photography by visiting her blog. It's about bird watching and living simply in a camper located in rural NW Georgia. She has plenty more of these beautiful pictures to look at there and also some very good information. Ratty told me to mention that he is now a big fan of her blog too. Go look at her blog for yourself and leave her a good comment.

ReplyDeleteThat is a good camera- it's the one I have, but I get frustrated at some of its failings, and I'm not having much luck learning how to use it manually.
