Old thread here: http://www.rspb.org.uk/community/chat/f/2542/t/22684.aspx
Because the original thread has, fittingly enough, 'gone bad', it's time for a new 'Bad pics' thread. Here, we celebrate the very worst of our wildlife photography. The subject matter is always brilliant, but the photos are very much not. If it's out of focus, chopped in half, frighteningly under- or over-exposed or terrible in some other way, it belongs here :)
Here's my first (first of many, no doubt) contribution to the new thread, a Goldcrest taken at Barnes yesterday. You need only minor incompetence to take a blurry photo, and the same to take a really under-exposed photo, but to do both in one go requires a special level of cackhandedness.

They are difficult to photograph Hazel, and like you say they never keep still long enough to get a picture of them.

WOW
LOL TJ, thats the best worst pic I've seen !!
Here's a robin fight I took today and the best worst pic I've ever taken !
if only the previous shot had been set for speed as it was a ding-donger of a battle, wings, beak, feet - no holds barred lol
LOL, Hazy. I'm glad you told me what it was as I would have been struggling. The poor light at this time of year makes action shots a bit of a challenge.
LOL TJ, you might recognise this bad pic - waving at the camera !! I really need the f2.8 for light lol
Here's a couple of my rare bird, the Isabelline Wheatear, wish these had came out Lol
I suppose with the last one you can see the tail detail Lol
