Bird photo comp - shortlisted entries

[Martin Butterfield via Canberrabirds <>]

I think at the first COG Meeting  I attended - mid 1983 - Graeme Chapman presented hints on taking bird photos, illustrated with some of his best images.  From memory the cost of the kit he put up was something tripod $1000, camera body $3000 and telephoto lens $3000.  Allowing for inflation (about 3.5 x ) that would cost $25,000 these days.  So $20k is good value!

Thanks for that, some glorious images, however from inspection,  most of them needed about $20K plus worth of gear to take.
