Actually, it's F6.3 (I don't know why it's not on the given choices !?!)

Nice blend of sharpness and OOF, The drop down menu doesn't give you choices for 1/3 ev steps, only 1/2 ev steps (or vice versa)

Like this sort of thing, find myself doing it more and more.

If it were mine I'd crop the bottom grey background part out, as in IMHO it makes for a far more moody shot.

simplicity........beauty is everywhere if we have an eye for it......interesting you titled the shot cattails in the wind, shooting at such a high speed it feels still....

Wonderful shot..."tele" landscapes are appealing to me more and more.

Thanks guys ! Actually, this was a "test" shot when I arrived on site for bird photography and I liked the way it came out... no crop at all, but should have had a little more at the top...
Kerrowdown: I left it as is, the "grey" bottom background is actually the water behind. I think it adds to the "multi-level" effect I think...

Very nice and I really admire many of your wildlife captures ... Great stuff! J
