Even at ISO 800, the shutter speeds were ridiculously slow. I concluded that a monopod is little help in this situation. A tripod would have served me much better. One image caught my eye because of the lateral motion allowed by the monopod, giving somewhat of an abstract rendering of a Cardinal on the feeder. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/OldNick/Bird+Feeder+Abstract.jpg.html Let the brick bats begin!
