Awful light today but managed these two apart from all the ones which went straight in the bin. :gag:

Both at 1000mm with that 'rubbishy' 2X TC everyone talks about, 800 ISO 1/200 at f8

The first is a real sweetie, but both are generally top notch.

Out if interest what's your general PP flow?

Thankee kindly. Very little processing actually. Typically I often do nothing at all in RAW (RSP) These pics were so flat due to the light that I just boosted the shadow contrast slightly. Then it's PSP 7 as a TIFF where I rarely do more than adjust contrast or gamma slightly and sharpen. Sometimes I apply NR, but didn't to either of these.

#2 most certainly look as though its jumping ( should that be flying?) out at me :thumbs:
