Reed Bunting (Male)

Hi

Had some good light for a change here in the UK so went out to capture some Reed Buntings.

this one was with the D300, 500VR, 1.7x TC, handheld

flickr hosting seems to soften things a little bit, the original is definately sharper.

thanks Ray, of course i don't mind. thats better and more like the sharpness i'm seeing on my original image on screen. I hosted the image straight from flickr and it does seem to affect the sharpness a little bit.
