Roosting

Decided to drag out the 70-300 IS when I saw this hanging out where I work.

F/5.6, 1/640, ISO 100

And a 100% crop.

I need to use this lens more often. Pretty dang sharp for a non-L lens

Nice capture. I really like the non-cropped composition. It'd make a nice desktop wallpaper, IMO.

Impressive shot. Looks like you are getting excellent image quality out of that lens. . . its on my list to get.

That's one handsome bird! ;) (I like the un-crop too.)

One more, can't decide if I like this one, or the first one.

I like the composition of this one better. Including the tree as you did really gives a sense of scale. Nice!!

I like the last one the best... nice catch!

I'm going out on a limb here :D and saying I like the first one better. Something about the empty space that he's looking into. Wondering what is out there. Just works a little better compositionally to me. Just my .02.

A rare instance --- couldn't believe someone hadn't already used it :eek:
