Ever Watchful
« on: October 06, 2015, 11:28:57 am »

Been down with a nasty case of pneumonia and am finally back in the shooting mode again. I purchased the Nikon 200-500 5.6 lens but after only getting 4 out of 322 shots that I would even call decent, I sent the bugger back. Shot this with the Tamron 150-600 which is quite superior to the 200-500. It is possible I got a lemon.

Glad to hear you're feeling better. Nice shoot of that egret, and I love the metallic quality to the water.

Great posture, I like the "smoothness" of the shot.
Well done!
