Followed a link from Bird Forum, so here I am.

Budding wildlife/bird photographer with a hell of a lot to learn, so hoping to pick up some tips.

Currently use a Canon 450D & Tokina 80-400mm zoom, mainly because they were within my budget at the time.

Would love to give up my 9-5 job & go pro as a wildlife photographer, but I think cost of equipment & probable divorce would make it prohibitive. Still, I can dream!!

I've started a small Flickr album for my attempst at wildlife photography - http://www.flickr.com/​photos/28021551@N06/ (external link) - any comments welcomed.

Thanks for the welcome Dave.

I'm from the UK, and live in a village on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales.
