After about 3 weeks (2 weeks of bad weather) of trials and errors with my combo 70-200mm f2.8 + Canon TC 2.0x II, I think I am getting a hang of it. CC are definately welcome.

Have a safe holiday!:)

Great action shots...

I do find the frame to be some what overwhelming...

These dark feather colors are difficult to enhance... I would try to brighten them slightly, even if it means lightening the sky a bit...

Thanks for the tips John, I did try to brighten them...but I was affraid of over doing it. You're right though, I can still see some lost details in the darker parts of the wings.
