wildlightphoto Posted April 1, 2009 Share #1 Posted April 1, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) A tiny bit of fluff, more voice than flesh & bone: This bird was one of hundreds in the Yolo Bypass wildlife area between Sacramento and Davis. The song is the bird's territorial defense; a highly variable song, a neighboring wren will often repeat specific riffs of his neighbor's song. technical stuff: Leica R8/DMR, 280mm f/4 APO + 2x APO-Extender-R, shoulder stock & monopod.

leicanut2 Posted April 1, 2009 Share #5 Posted April 1, 2009 Hey Doug, Beautiful, I do not think I ever saw a picture where you use the 2x I can not see anything wrong with it. Looks just as good as a shot with the 1.4x. So why do you not use it more or have I just missed a mess of posts? Cheers Jan Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
