OK, first post in this section so it will be interesting see peoples thoughts on this, good or bad. Perhaps not the best to kick off with, but have got withdrawal symptoms, as I am out and about this week and felt the need to post:)
Taken on the way back to camp in the Okavango Delta, Botswana. These birds and the Malakite seem to be quite at ease to get quite close compare to the UK species. The 500mm lens for me is the workhorse and the majority of my work is taken using it, purely because of the diffused background you get with these lenses, likewise the 300 f2.8.
MKIII 500f/4 f7.1 1/640sec ISO 400 Beanbag
BTW This was also converted on a 'non-calibrated' laptop so it will be interesting to see how it compares to when I get back and view it on 'whopper'.:D
