I did get one today...

K-1 and DA 55-300 in FF mode. It worked out much better than I expected. Not much vignetting at all.

Nice shot Norm.

I'm back home now having removed myself from my Jacksonville unhealthy situation. And I'm happier for being home too. I have some bird shots I took before I left here that I have to process yet.

You sound like you might be ready to add another chapter to your auto-biography.

Might be Norm. I've lived and visited a lot of places and done a lot of things in my life time, but I don't think I'm ready to write that book yet.

Here's two photos I took before I left here.





Younger brother has informed me I can't feed the squirrels any more, but we'll see about that.

I think you can argue that you are feeding the birds. The squirrels just happen to eat from the same menu .
