wow!
Didn't realize the 55-300 was that sharp.

And I don't think the lens is that pricey, is it?

anyhow, great job!!

Very nice!

BTW, I think the first shot was taken with the Sigma.

The bird images are fantastic, trumpyman! I love the way you captured the sun in #4, and that orange sky is just beautiful. Very nice series here.

Ye the 55-300 is a gr8 lens nice n sharp when u get it rite,the croc photo is a heavy crop so not so good.
Thnx Paul

What a lesson, never seen those kind of teeth. Thanks for sharing!

heatherslightbox · 02-07-2009, 11:53 AM

Nice shots! Which ones were taken with which lenses?

Thanks!
Heather

hi ,the 1st and 4th are with the Sigma,2 ,3 ,5 with the DA 55-300mm.
Thnx for comments
Thnx Paul

That first one is bit scary. The duck looks frantic and scared. But it is well taken and tack sharp. And I like the second, creative and evocative crop. The third is also good, dynamic and sharp. Those Pelican sure do look surreal. I really like the 4th sunset (I presume) but I think you try to open up the shadows on the right side. And if you don't like my comments, you can feed them to the croc in the last shot! :-)

Nice series - those teeth look razor sharp in #1

**Ash** · 02-07-2009, 04:23 PM

My, what big teeth you have, ugly duckling!
