Despite the rain, many birders turned up to Neil Fifer's workshop at Kowloon Park this morning, 21st May.

This is one shot taken in the rain today.

Koowloon Park

1/8 sec exposure Nikon 8400 with Swarovski ATS 80HD scope and 20-80x Eyepiece.

Thanks Neil for all the advice and maybe we can have a digiscoping section on this BBS

Nice shot with clean bg and I like the water droplets, Bob!

The head is rather soft however as critical focus appears to be at the tail instead ... :(

Keep up with the good work!

Yes KK, I will have to try harder but it was a little difficult standing out in the rain.

Actually the softness maybe partly due to the long exposure time, 1/8 sec or old age and bad eyesight

Thanks

Bob

My thanks again to Neil for sharing his precious experience.  His gorgeous photos are so inspiring that gives me a strong hope and faith in digiscoping.  I can see the significant improvements in Bob's work too, and at a younger age and with better eyes I should be able to do something at least as good.  ;D

Yes, the group of participants have requested the setting up of a digiscoping forum on the HKBWS site as a follow-up for developing further the subject.  One day we may surpass our counterpart in the birdforum.net  ;D

Hi Fred,

Sorry for the late reply.

We will not create any new forum at this moment as HKBWS is going to set up a new BBS soon. However, your request will be considered when we are designing the layout/structure of the new BBS.

You can take a look of the preliminary layout of the new BBS at here. (http://dev.hkbws.org.hk/phpBB2plus153a/portal.php) Any suggestion/comment is welcome.

Regards,

Forrest

Forest,

I like the layout but is it possible to make the Visual Confirmation Code larger. I find that it is difficult to pick some of the number/letters or maybe I am just color blind

The new website looks great with more powerful functions.  I look forward to its launching with enriched contents and user-friendly navigation.  Thanks.
:)
