Bee eater and his prey (with camera config setup)
Today's catch. Bee-eater bird. The most interesting part is how it was captured. Welcome to the description of the shot. Full Flickr version: Canon 650D, Celestron PowerSeeker 80EQ Telescope ISO160, 1/125, ƒ/8 Manual focus with the scope. Used: Celestron 93625 Universal 1.25-inch Camera T-Adapter and Celestron 93419 T-Ring for 35 mm Canon EOS Camera (Black) In general camera configuration looked like so: I'm not too satisfied with the quality this config provides. I mean its not the camera lens. However it gives decent quality for capturing sensitive objects in a "non-frightened" distance. Me and a bird were about 50 meters away.
