Awesome IF shots Conrad. These are ones of your best set I've seen. Love all the Bgs and espcially the blue sky w/ clouds. One thing I notice is there is some sort of halo (not sure if I describe it right), pixelation or something around the edges in the sky BGs. Great job buddy.

Aww... you're a sweet kid.

Thanks for the kind words!

Sorry I am not really participating in the 100mm challenge. I don't think I'll ever be a macro guy. I love the thrill of BIF shooting way too much.

You know Dan, I can see what you're talking about now here at my work laptop. I didn't see it at my monitor at home. What the heck is going on with that?

Damn it...

Great shots Conrad, looks like that boat was a good investment.

Thank your Garen! Not as good as your 800mm shots. But at half the FL, I did my best!

These are beautiful captures, Conrad, and you did a great job capturing these IF shots. The Osprey against that sky is very pleasing. What Dan is talking about, and I can see on my monitor, is called Posterization and it appears as steps in what should be a smooth transition. Clouds and Skies are often subject to this "banding" It also shows in the last image. You should start shooting RAW Conrad.

. I also like 4, 8 and 9. Congrats on a super set!
