Great shots, Gugu! Amazing sharpness on that chimp shot.

Were any of the pictures taken through a fence?

Great shots. But #8 is my favorite.

btw a max resolution of 800 pixels on the longest edge works best within the forum this keeps scrolling sideways to a minimum on small screens.

You`ve got some amazing pictures here my friend,especially the chimp.

Did you apply any usm to the pictures at all?
I`m trying to see how sharp it is.

Thank you Dimitri, hearing a compliment from you means alot to me.

Very little USM just to compensate a bit for the sharpness loss due to resizing.

In my eyes the 70-300 is very sharp.
