Thank you MrKyle, Fred and 15Bit....I am glad you like those shots.
Very nicely done Egret, Fred....you are clearly far from a novice to shooting birds.
That combo you have used is quite powerful, I think: 700mm f5.6 and one can carry it with ease.
15Bit, I haven`t used 1DX lately because I do not have any suitable targets to verify the last AF performance aspect of it yet: fast approaching head-on targets. For stationary and slow targets my old 1DsMkII works great and I am used to it.....as comfortable as an old well worn shoe.
Here`s one more 1DsMkII + 800L image which I haven`t finished post processing properly, so it is still a rough sketch.
