Never in a million years (as mentioned earlier). Glad that Siggy 100-300mm f/4 is working out! It's a great pieve of glass. Well done on a superb BiF shot.

LOL... My goodness Philip. Great take but NEVER would have geussed this to be you. I was looking for a seascape/landscape shot from you and could only find this by going to your profile :) Super sharp

Woah, that is a cool looking bird! I would have cropped the image so that the bird is in the left bottom corner. Even though that breaks the rules of thirds, the bird is shaped to fit there perfectly, and I think it would have made a more interesting composition. Still a really nice bird photo in its own right. 7

Superb BiF shot. Absolutely 1st class in all respects. I'm scratching my head as to which (South) African tog took this.
