Well, I don't know if a bird can really be grumpy, but that's how I read this barn swallow's expression. =)
Along the Icefields Highway in Banff National Park. He seemed to be quite upset that we had stopped at this pullout. He was sharpening his beak on the post and making a lot of noise. But since he was not going anywhere, we took the opportunity to take some photos.

I'm sure this gentleman is not grumpy in real life, and I apologise in advance if he ever sees this, but the title does seem apt given his stance! Top marks Sir for keeping everyone safe on the railway.
I think birds have expressions too. I love the grumpy look on this one's face. He was guarding the feeder and was really annoyed at the other birds.

This is my folk's version of a grumpy cat! ;) Her name is Penny and she's turning 17 this August!

04 A hastily-edited taster from my first studio shoot yesterday, taken at Studio 101 in Deptford. I have wanted to shoot some "proper" portraits for a while and have been toying with the idea of buying a small lighting set-up for home. In reality, we don't have the space so hiring somewhere for half a day seemed like good way to get a feel for it (and potentially get some shots to promote myself to paying customers; there are a lot of young families in Brockley!).
Given that I don't really know how to use my hotshoe flashgun properly, working with four lights was a challenge, to say the least. As ever, pictures which looked fabulous on the camera's 3" lcd screen have all manner of imperfections when viewed on 27" of iMac glory - I guess this is why pro photographers often shoot tethered to a computer. Still, it was a fun and relatively inexpensive morning where I got to hang out with some friends and their kids, and I have learned a lot for next time. Here are my top tips for anyone wanting to give it a go themselves:
1. Buy a light meter and know how to use it, or make sure you get the studio to explain theirs before the person you're hiring from leaves. I did a bit of research and reading about light placement and measurement before I went, and I took a diagram of a basic portrait studio set-up. The 'free introduction to studio lighting with every first booking!' was some mumbled words about turning the brightness up and down on the flashes and not rolling the background out too far if you wanted to avoid a £6 per metre charge for dirtying it. I knew the values I wanted from the different lights but I couldn't figure out how to measure them, so it was trial and error with the power settings.
2. If you can't measure the light values, at least check to see whether the lights are all the same power output! Only when I was packing up did I notice that the two lights I had been using to light the background (one either side) were different - 200w to the left, 400w to the right. Result? A much darker area to the left of most shots! This is more pronounced because my key light was coming from the front right of the subject. So despite dialling in the same number on each background light, I was effectively getting twice as much power from the right hand one. Bum.
3. Pay the £6 for some fresh background! Or £12, or £18 - whatever you need to get a pure white, clean floor and wall. At the time I was thinking, "I can sort that out in post." What a fucking ball-ache it is to do! I am not an experienced Photoshop or Lightroom user, and I hate spending loads of time post-producing images. If you're the same, pay for some new paper.
4. Find a studio which has lights which can keep up with your camera's frame rate. About 15-20% of my shots were black because the studio flash didn't refresh in time. I don't know about these things, so maybe 5fps is too fast for studio shoots; but if you're trying to shoot a jumping child, you want all the chances you can get.
So, all-in-all a good experience. I can see myself getting more into studio photography. More pics from this set to follow, once I've dealt with those backgrounds...
Can you survive the searing anger of GRUMPY CAT?

Around and round the ruby red feeder the ragged birds they fly. The hummingbird feeder fights are a constant buzzing war that never ends. This female Rufous Hummingbird sits in the witch hazel and glares at rivals.
