I wanted to get something a little different of my local greys and this appealed to my eyes. Comments welcome as per usual.

These little imports are really unpopular - but they are still wild animals and I wanted to get away from the rather boring portraits I've been taking of wildlife recently. Thanks for taking the time to look and comment.

I like this very much.

Also, I like your review of the 70-300 IS on your website, plus the excellent images with this lens. I have this lens and your comments cheered me up no end. Did you try it with the extender?

Thanks for sharing.
