I like those foggy town scenes by Jerry Tenn. as well.

I did some further 400 II + 2xTC BIF exploring today, and I must say I continue to be impressed by how well that combo works.
Here's one example with last of the fall bokeh.
Handheld 1DX + 400 f/2.8 IS MkII + 2xTC MkIII.

Great picture, Peter

5D + 24-105/4

Ralphie, glad you like it. Here is another long range shot with handheld 1DX + 400 II + 2xTC III, with some colours in the background.

Peter,

I thought this was classified information!

Some great work here. Here are my attempts for the fall season contribution...

The first one is an example of the many ancient tobacco sheds and barns that become visible in the thick woods as the leaves start to thin out. This one was right alongside a 2 lane road - I hadn't seen it at all this summer. Followed by a reflective pond and the contrast between red and unpainted wood...

Thanks for looking.

You are absolutely right, Db........however, by not doing a comparison to 800L or 600II + 1.4xTC, the key information has not been divulged.

Some really nice Autumn Avian Art lately; Doctorbird's mandarin and wood ducks in the same frame (!), Skibum's kingfishers, and of course, Peter's "Pijun on Approach Vector"...

Well, I'm sticking to things that are low and slow...
...like frozen leaves...

All four shot with a tripod-mounted 100L Macro...
Jerry

nice icy shots!

Great shots! I love the splashes of color in each, against the somewhat muted greenery.

I really enjoy looking at all the color, very nice.

I went with a girlfriend to the beach last night....fall sunsets..wait all year for these!

What a great shot...love how he is looking off to the side at the camera like that! amazing...love the color too. A lot of personality in that shot.

There are some fantastic work shown on this thread so far ! Here are a couple of mine...

Great portraits, sritri; I especially like the detail and coloring of the first one (goose?)...that green/white mix reminds me of a couch I once owned ...

I saw movement at the edge of the yard this afternoon and walked out to find a pair of young deer; I recognize them as two of this year's fawns, and now that one has "antler bumps", I can tell one is a male . He was as skittish as I expected, but the female was almost friendly; I carefully crept within ten feet of her, and she just looked at me briefly and turned back to munching honeysuckle leaves...the first two here are of her, and I didn't crop off a single pixel - that's how close she let me and my 300mm f/2.8 approach...in the third you can see a hint of his bumps, just in front of the ears...

After I took a couple dozen frames (excellent silent mode on the 5DIII) I just watched for a while, until the nervous brother finally led her away...

Some with the 500 II on the 1DX, making the most of a mostly cloudy day:

And a few more:

Doctor Bird, #3 is beautiful.

Now look what you've gone and done, getting a whole onslaught of "me too"...

My first time with long exposure, pretty fun learning experience.
