    That first shot is cool. Never seen that pose from a Pelican before.

    The second one I'd make a panorama crop and lose the land.

    Any hawk shot with a sharp eye is a good one IMO. thumb.gif

    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!"

    Photographers deal in things which are continually vanishing and when they have vanished there is no contrivance on earth which can make them come back again.

    Pete,

    Harry lives in the sticks, too. The only thing is that over there it rains more and old people sit at traffic lights when they turn green because they forget they're in a car.

    Those are crisp images for a TC attached to that lens. I have that lens and have been hesitant to attach a TC to it. Wonderful shots.
