Red Shouldered Hawk, having a snack, check out the tail on the pole.

the rendering in this photo is very very nice, it's like the feathers are popping out! which lens did you use?

Wonderful capture.

LaRee · 03-27-2008, 07:18 PM

Hey that is a good capture you have here. Did you get to see the action leading up to this hawk on a pole with it's meal?

I actually used the Tamron 70-300mm DI with a 1.4X TC on the K10D, and no I missed the kill, I just happened to notice him as I was driving by, and grabbed the first camera I could.

Tee hee. I LOVE when folks post a great image taken with the Tamron 70-300. And it works well with a tc too. I swear that lens is my work-horse. I have a ton of money invested in lenses. That Tamron 70/300 is my least expensive lens and gets the most use!

Nice angle and detail

Good eye spotting this photo opportunity, nice capture. I have never had much success with teleconverters. I am impressed that the 1.4x TC did so well. It must be a good match to your Tamron lens. Could I ask what brand the TC is?

It is a Tamron 1.4X TC, they are getting harder and harder to find.

Well the Pentax 55-300 had better be a whole lot better for the difference in price.
