Thank you! I need to practice panning! 1/30 second at 840mm is no walk in the park, afterwards I realized the OSS was turned off. so it was 1/3o with no OSS. Beautiful set posted, love the first one.
Pius, Leon, these are some eye popping owl shots! Louie, beautiful tone on the eagle and the background.
I am finally getting critically sharp images using my A1 and 600 GM with the 1.4 TC. Prior, images were just lacking a bit but a bump to F6.3 and 1/3200 sec rather than 1/2500 seems to have worked magic. I was thinking that the 1.4TC was "bad" but apparently no. Since buying the 600mm lens, it has been deeply overcast here and while I love soft light, it has been an extremely dark 3 weeks here in the Midwest.

Great set Douglas. We were there yesterday, but the light wasn’t great.
I grabbed a shot of this Red-lored Parrot enjoying some cheese empanada in Costa Rica late last year.
Thank you Ed! I may head back there next week if the number of geese increases. That's a lovely portrait of the parrot! I got to head down to Costa Rica one of these days.
A few from today at a small pond, very very heavy cropping.

The little guys were a lot less cooperative than usual in terms of backgrounds and lighting. Should have brought the 200-600 instead...
