Hi Arthur,

In the bit titled ‘Interestingly Enough’ you said: “I created this image on Saturday afternoon with the hand held 300/2.8L IS II and the 2X III TC. I tried again on Sunday in the same situation with the 600 f/4L IS II and the 2X III TC but did not do as well as I did on Saturday despite the much greater effective focal length available on Sunday. Leave a comment and let me know why.”

Thanks Julian, Photographers are often cast as a bad lot by others especially birders so best to avoid jumping to wrong conclusions. I was seated unobtrusively with about eight other photographers none of whom were standing or even moving. The few birds setting up on the near-island were very accepting of our presence.

Where did I ask a question about 1200mm flight photography??? I know why it is so difficult….
