I have read that these Sigma lenses extended to 600mm are not that sharpe, you prove that wrong in these pictures. It proves the old adage, it's more about the photographer than the camera equipment. Well done.

Thank you George,
All the reviews show this lens as excellent even wide open at 600mm and that's my experience
