I could reach very close to this fellow. Most of the macros recently with 50mm were from close range. Wearing green cloths, I guess my presence went undetected. I could almost touch the wings..

Indian roller, shot with Sigma 50-500 borrowed one.
The bird hopped in, got its prey and few to the top of the tree.
Sigma 50-500 came in very handy

Shot with Olympus Zuiko 70 300 @ F 5.6
I used to under expose the photos to get higher shutter speeds and deep colors on my Olympus E520. But it also resulted in noise.
So I tried to stick to F5.6 and not to under expose. Results were good. Olympus do have problems with noise though. Anything above ISO 400 is not good at all.
