Both of these are amazing... there is a lot of talk about how the 200-500VR can not focus fast enough to capture birds in flight. While kittiwakes have a more "lethargic" gull-like flying behavior, the same is not true for alcids like razor bills and puffins. I think that your razorbill image is counter to the mythology that is often weaved about the inadequacies of this super-zoom.
As seems to always be the case, your images are masterful!
cheers,

Looking forward to breaking it in photographing loons during my 2 week trip to Maine.
You'll have so much fun. The weather is almost always good from now through September. I have every single detail thought out (no matter how small) and am always on the water at first light or at least at first direct light.
Then I just do it! Each day is different. Health issue has held me back just lately from getting out as much.
Glad to answer any question I may be able to....regarding the part of Maine you are going to.
