Panasonic Lumix GF-1, Lumix G Vario OIS 14-45 f/3.5~5.6 at 45mm, 1/40s, f8, ISO 400
What was I photographing on this day in previous years?
15 years ago it was this cheeky little Robin (Erithacus rubecula), posing by the frosted railway tracks at the Midland Railway-Butterley in Derbyshire.
At the time I’d only got the 14-45mm lens (28-90mm in 35mm terms) for the Panasonic Lumix GF-1 so this was the closest pic I could get… I remember being pretty pleased with it at the time though!
