Well, not quite, but it was a cloudy and drizzly day and everything looked grey! Huge crops but came out reasonably thanks to the magic of the 500 II. All handheld, shot at Jackson Bottom Wetlands, Hillsboro, OR.

If I don't get the shots I want with the gear I have, the only optics I need to examine is the mirror on the bathroom wall. The root cause will be there.

Thanks, John! Yeah, grey was the predominant color that day, but all in all, I'm happy that I could handhold a 1000mm equivalent FL and get away with it! :lol:
