(x-posted in the 300mm thread)
today I took a break and went out with my monster FA*250-600+HDTC+K-1
We are lucky to have a couple that nest in some islands near my home... but I did not knew their exact site until now.
And I was lucky to see them together...
Even if the HDTC is not FF, I had to crop a lot anyways (almost 1:1) and the resolution is still acceptable!
This is how the original RAW file looked like:
(Approx distance:150m / 500 ft)
this kind of cropping is called ... heavy crop!

Ran up to the mountain when a storm was blowing in. I missed the main dust wall, but stayed and got some decent lightning shots. K-3 with Sigma 17-50mm f/2.8

Since it is in Laugharne estuary I may be forgiven for noting that although it is a lovely scene well captured I had to chuckle at the clever juxtaposition of eras.

I love a wet-headed eagle! For a year and a half minus the coldest winter months here in the Capital Region of New York I've been casually "stalking" six adult eagles and two juveniles on the early mornings my shifts end just before the sun rises over the Hudson River in Green Island.
There are more details leading up to the photo on the Flickr post for it. This shot is one of the sharper favorites of at least 20 photos I took this day of this bird. Being pretty decent to begin with I did do some post-processing in darktable, nothing too drastic. Mainly cropped the dead space over the head and sides to frame the bird in better and tweaked the lighting to match what I saw at the time of the capture.
The head of this bird is the best part to me being wet already from the rain created that separation between the feathers that I love so much in other peoples eagle photos.
This is now my new favorite of the bird photos I've taken.
Gear used:
