All taken hand held with an M42 50mm manual focus lens on macro bellows. Shot at f22 to try to get a little depth of field.

Cheers for that Matt.

 

Just to add, none of the images are cropped. That is the size out of camera.

In the past month I've seen both squirrels and pigeons at it, I love the funky pigeon mating dance.

Shooting at a wide aperture (lower f stop) would give an extremely shallow depth of field with the the macro set up.

Do you have a video camera?

 

The squirrels chasing each other fighting over a female is a very frantic business.

 

From tree to tree and trying to throw each other out!

 

It would make good footage
