The best part is mine are really good, but I had my 11 and 12 yo on my Canon 20D's and they came up with some really amazing images. I have them working in LR already and hope to maybe add a couple of theirs to this post....

Nice finds... A faster shutter speed would probably make those a little sharper for you! Maybe open up your aperture and increase the shutter speed. A good rule of thumb... if you are shooting at 400mm... you need at least 1/400 shutter. f/5.6 will help you seperate them from the background more too with a little depth of field. :)

Great find for sure! I'm surprised there isn't an eagle's nest on those antlers! :lol:

That is one big rack!
