A couple shots with my new toys yesterday. Look at the sad eyes of the fish in the third picture, makes me feel sorry for the poor fish. I am amazed how massive the bald eagles' wingspan is.
You all have a great weekend!

Fantastic series my friend !
Thank you Ronny! I can see you will not be able to resist getting the A1.

Hi Douglas,
Excellent. So, not only have you gotten an A-1, but you also got a 600mm f4 GM?
Photo taken at 9:13 AM.
Looking at Daisies.
Tripod mounted Leica R 100mm f2.8 Apo-Macro-Elmarit lens and A7r.
ISO 200, f8?, 1/80 second.
Exposure Corrected +0.49 Stops.

Thank you Rich. I did get the 600mm GM, maybe I shouldn't have...Crazy to even think of spending that kind of money for birds..
Some shots from the dog walk this morning:
Hi Douglas,
Yikes, between the camera and the lens, that is a really large outlay of money. I can't see getting the lens anytime soon, especially with the performance of my 200-600 G as long as I can accept the DOF at f6.3 vs f4. Besides, as I mentioned somewhere on FM in December we I purchased a new 2021 Subaru Outback which I have to finish paying for over time. Also closed up a storage facility that I had since 2008 which is saving me money. Maybe in the future I can save enough money for an A1 particularly at a good price or wait for and see the performance of the A7rV when it is released.
I may consider selling my Leica R 280mm f4 Apo-Telyt which has been sitting idle since I purchased the 100-400mm GM and the 200-600mm G. That would yield a substantial amount toward a camera.
