The Plaintive Cuckoo (Cacomantis merulinus) is an uncommon resident in Singapore. In the past it was called the Malayan Brain Fever Bird. The Malay name is “Burung Anak Mati” which translate to dead child bird. All these names refer to the mournful sounding call that the adult male use to attract the female bird.
Although listed as uncommon, the male can be rather easily found during the breeding season if one recognises its call. And it can be found in many areas in Singapore. It is a brood parasite, with hosts reported including ioras, prinias, cisticolas and tailorbirds.
Everyone does HDR, this was my first. It's multi-shot using the camera's auto-bracket exposure mode.

This is a test photo for edge detail and the new metering mode called 'Highlight weighted'. When looking at the EXIF data for Metering, it's listed as 'Other'. The pedals were very bright as the flower was backlight, no blown highlights.
Also, the fuzz on the leaves couldn't be sharper. Processing was basic Camera raw for posting.
Handheld with a Sigma 600mm f/8 mirror lens. 1/2000th sec.
This is the lens that put the 'cussing' back into 'focussing'. It's incredibly unforgiving. My approach is to take hundreds of slightly out of focus shots. Occasionally I screw up and get one that's in focus. :P
Having said that, I'm glad I got this lens. I've already taken some shots I like that I couldn't have got before. :)
Handheld panorama in hard light conditions. Tough one!

In the not too distant past, our rabbits and I made a few little critters to drum up a little dough to pay for their pet cat’s mounting medical bills. Probably because we channeled a whole bunch of positive energy into them, they feel pretty good to look at.
Then I realized they feel pretty good to hold, too. Their asymmetrical shape is a bit anatomical—they seem to fall right into the crook of the hand. I soon noticed that my hands, when idle, went straight for one. Familiar like a well-worn blanket or other childhood treasure, they’re quite cuddly. Best of all, they don’t snore.
As usual, these little sweeties contain the standard materials: recycled wool, cotton, and buttons and hypo-allergenic poly-Dacron fiber fill. Healthy for both people and the environment we live in, they’re lovely gifts for anyone who needs a little comfort every now and then.
