Yes they are called great whites for good reasons. I have the 600 F4 II which is a great lens but a bit of effort the use.Hi Hector.
Lovely shot, dreamy bokeh! Got to love those great whites!
Cheers, Graham.
It's a lovely lens and takes the 2xTCIII really well too. It was the first telephoto I had that took really tack sharp shots.Yes they are great for a reason. I have the 600 F4 II which is a great lens but a bit of effort the use.
The 300 2.8 II is a very flexible lens and takes the 1.4 extender really well. I use it handheld quite a bit.
Yes, once you get that sharp its hard to go back to fairly sharp. It separates the background too very well.It's a lovely lens and takes the 2xTCIII really well too. It was the first telephoto I had that took really tack sharp shots.
Great capture. Nice bit of actionI am sorting out photos from this year to make a 2021 calendar and found this one I had missed of a Cormorant flying in. The old DSLR never misses these shots. I am waiting for lock down to end to use the R5 in that location.

They back great memories of my seeing them on foreign trips. They may be common for you, but for me they are a treat. Keep posting - thanks!
I had to concentrate on this for at least half a minute before I was finally able to see it as an outside corner.A male Red-bellied Woodpecker trying to crack an acorn on my chimney.

I like the way they are looking at each other, though their thoughts probably differ.One of the local Osprey nabbed a pretty nice fish, a Yellowfin Croaker(I think), and brought it back to a nearby post. Sadly I didn't even see it catch the fish and just happened to hear the ruckus as it landed.

Nice shot ISv . The bird is nice but the bark on the tree is amazing.
Rainbow Eucalyptus - the bark actually has more colors but that bird was siting on growing in shade stems.Nice shot ISv . The bird is nice but the bark on the tree is amazing.
