Love the low camera position on this very nice shot.

This one's a beauty, Tom!

Incredibly nice shot, fotoi. The blue reflection on the water is so pretty looking.

Excellent shot, Mike. You certainly get wonderfully sharp images with the Tamron 150-600. Were you ever able to compare it to the Sigma 150- 600?

Thank you Mike!

Thanks Mike. I have not tried the Sigma. In May, I entered my favorite camera store (Foto Forum, Phoenix) with cash in hand to buy a new Canon 100-400mm, but a trusted store employee, along with a customer who already owned a Tamron 150-600 G2, strongly suggested the Tamron. I decided to go for the extra reach while saving $1,000.

I'm really happy with the lens, but I always do some sharpening in lightroom as per Anthony Morganti's videos on youtube. My guess is that everyone does some post production sharpening, though.

This is a Spotted Crake, they are very scarce in the UK. I was very lucky and fortunate to see this bird.

Kestrel on an electric fence, this bloody fence vmad, twice now I've had a shock from it. The first time I touched it I said to my-self "Ouch I won't be doing that again", 2nd time I rested my monopod against it and yes I got another shock. It clicks away all day so you think the noise would put people off,.....Not me I'm just a silly old sod!
