The picture of this Black-throated Blue Warbler (male) was taken in Central Park, New York City. It was taken with my CANON EOS7D with the CANON 100-400mm lens and the CANON 580 EXII flash. I have been using my flash with a better beamer attachment when going to Central Park because so many of the birds are in the shadier areas of the park.
This Black-throated Blue Warbler was very close to me when I took this picture so I needed to have my flash at -3 not to “blow out” the picture.
