Goldfinches, sun and experiments.

The first sunshine for a couple of weeks enabled me to carry out a double experiment. I have just acquired a cheap old manual lens (Tele Takumar 200mm) and decided to try it with my new home-made RF remote. The garden Goldfinches were the target and after quite a wait to get them in the right place I got some shots.

Overall I am quite pleased with the results.
