 Hosted photo: posted by duckster in ./showthread.php?p=19462386&i=i247822115 forum: Lens Sample Photo Archive I agree with you Duckster. It is very difficult to take a satisfactory result in such weather, specially with a f/11. However your photo is great.

Thank you. I always find it difficult with these raptors as they like to sit in the open which gives you only big bright sky as a backdrop

The second is a "Slate-colored" Junco, typical in the eastern US but uncommon out west, so it's nice to have one hanging around the yard. These were once considered separate species.

SYS Cream of the Crop More info | Jan 07, 2023 16:10 | #1124 Just made my own DIY "Better Beamer" to partner with the RF 800. It is made from a gutter downspout that I picked up from a local Lowe's for $2.99. The material is ideal for this as it's very light yet durable vinyl, and it fits the head of my flash perfectly. Add another few bucks for Fresnel lens, and voila, here's my own Better Beamer for less than $7.00.       The real Better Beamer vs. DIY Better Beamer
