Had been to Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge over the Weekend. Here are few of the Shots that I managed to take with D300s & 300mm F/4 AF-S + TC 14eII. Would appreciate your thoughts and Critique's.

    I used to shoot at the Jamaica Bay REfuge when I lived in NYC. Good set of images, the third capture would have been improved with a faster shutter speed. 1/800 sec just isn't fast enough for that kind of action.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
