Exceptional image Mike, especially given the focal length and all that new gear you are learning to master. :-)

Cheers

Thank you so much, fotoi! I think my R5 and the 100-500 like me. :lol:

Dennis, you are way over rewarding me with your kind compliments. I surely do thank you. I am starting to learn a little bit more all the time. For me the trick is to simply all the buttons and dials for speed. I do that, but I keep forgetting which does what. Every outing I get a little faster. Learning a camera means making everything an automatic reaction, and not having to think about what to do. I definitely have a ways to go yet. :-)

Awesome detail Mike.

Many thanks, Irene. I'm truly amazed at how fast this camera is able to get the focusing square ('s) on target. Sometimes I'm amazed when I see it happen in the viewfinder.

Thank you Cog. And yes, I'm really enjoying my new toys. I'm like a little kid who just opened his favorite present on Christmas morning. :lol:
