From last weekends outing and a few of the baby Pie-billed grebes with MaggieBee and Mike.
I was a bit disappointed with most of the images. The DOF was quite limited at focal length of 840mm, so quite a few that seemed they might have been nice were rejected for OOF areas. I was using the big Pentax zoom with 1.4X TC's on the K20D.
The matching Pentax version doesn't allow AF so I also tried the Tamron. Neither have great results with the FA* 250-600/5.6. Anyway I did manage a couple decent ones of the grebes:
These look great, Jay. Challenging to photograph, that's for certain. They're so close but so far, if you know what I mean. I especially like the first one - great angle, and soooooo cute!
