Wetlands & Wildlife Centre Barnes.

As normal the weather over Christmas has not been very good which has been disappointing as I had 10 days off and wanted to get out with my camera and take some shots.

I decided yesterday to head over to the wetlands and wildlife centre at Barnes even though the light was awful and the skies were very grey.

I took my 500mm telephoto and thought I would at least practice trying to get some birds in flight. I was quite pleased with the result of this Herring Gull that I managed to bag. I had to dodge and burn a bit but think the result justifies the effort. Hope you think so too?
