The snow buntings, I hear, are all over facebook. I chatted to a guy who had come from Macclesfield, a couple of hours away, to photograph the snow buntings with his nikon 300mm f2.8 + TC. He said upwards of twenty twitchers had been and gone. The glorious sunshine would've been worth it, however I'm happy I only had to walk 15mins.
This T-noflexar 400mm is not the same one as my previous novoflex posts though, I picked up an older novoflex in order to acquire the shoulder stock and put the optic on my later "PIGRIFF". For me this one is not as sharp as the Canon 400mm, or the other T-noflexar IMO. NX20, f8 and f11.
(That's deep blue... sea actually!)
The buntings look like they're going to be around for a while. I think I'll try the 500mm mirror next...
But let me know if you're beginning to feel a bunting surfeit...
