I was shooting my grandson playing tball last night, so had the camera set at 800iso, and didnt have my kenko 1.4x

Anyway, saw this osprey out of the corner of my eye, and shot this handheld at 300mm. Not great, but can see the fish he was carrying.

Sorta cool

Hi - nice shot...

...especially 300mm hand-held - so don't worry just because it isn't to your usually high standard - getting the shot at all was quite an achievement.

(sotto voce) By the way, you posted to the "wrong" forum ;-)

I see they jumped all over it -lol!!!

It's an interesting grab, but I liked this one better.

I like that one too, the definition, the capture of action, the total skill and effort it took to bring that to the forum. I dont believe everyone realizes the extent I went to to bring that rare bird here.

Yes, the Osprey went over like a lead balloon, lost in the posts by trolls.

But why are the letters backwards? Did you take it in a mirror?

other side...1) the letters would be correct and 2) I'd a been trespassing.

Alright, i dont go to all lengths to bring these quality images. I dont break the law, but everything else I said goes.

They aren't backwards to everyone... It just depends on where you stand..

It looks like this one is designed to be seen from the the other side.

It's a good nature pic, but not worth getting shot over. As an alternative...

...to both of you - this thread brightened up my day - love the banter :-)

U.Frank, you must be one of the few folk who have "enough" time for this hobby - or can reflect letters in an image faster than anyone else I know!

Actually, I'm surprised that was the only changes you made (grin).

Oh well, back to the chores now...

... between the NTF and the NSTF. We had a ball playing with it, and you didn't get a single response on the other forum.

Too bad for them. They missed all the fun :-).

All the more reason to allow people who used to live here and make great contributions, but commited the great sin of buying a DSLR to continue to hang out here...
