A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.
This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Good lenses definitely make a difference but I've found shutter speed is one of the most important factors. Even for something stationary I tend to try to aim for a minimum of 1/1000s as even a gentle breeze and motion from the subject breathing will cause micro movements in feathers and fur that can make the image look soft at lower shutter speeds.
This was shot at 1/1250 to stop those micro movements.
