Wow on the first shot. The lighting is just excellent. Like the second shot too. You are doing great with that lens. Now I'm jealous.

Great lens in good hands, great shots that show that timing is everything. Very well done.

Great lens, judging by the pictures. I have a Sigma 150-500 and I'm very pleased with it. Both pics are excellent, but the first picture is outstanding, IMO.

The lighting is incredibly favorable in photo 1. Very well done. That's one I'd print for sure.. despite the ISO grain. What work did you do on it on the PC?

Hey mate, the first photo was a challenge as i was shooting into the sun so i did a bit in lightroom to lift the shadows from around the face, other than that the sun did most of the work for me
