In reply to Richard Pavek, 6 months ago

Good Morning,

Richard first of all I would like to thank you and all the members on this thread and forum who took out the time to read my thread,see my snaps and comment on them and their subsequent replies to my query regarding the two teleconverters.I am especially grateful to you and Peter who have given me in detail analysis of the snaps as well as the information regarding the teleconverters.Last week I was without any internet connection after posting my snaps here so I could not reply to your threads sooner.

Today I am posting some more photos taken with the same combo on my E-620.All shots are hand held,with minimal post processing ( i did take some RAW shots but I am yet to process them).



I had posted a snap of this Pied Kingfisher last week -it was at first alone on this wire and then the Black Drongo came in and started to argue with him for no apparent reason-maybe for space on the wire.Then he took up a space on the wire outside the comfort zone of the Kingfisher.



This Pelican was  on the shores with a few other waterbirds when we were shooting the Kingfisher.We were shooting from quite a distance away.As soon as we started approaching him to lessen the gap between the Pelican and us he took off........ thankfully I had focused on him.
