gull practice

[blackfox]

not had a dry day for a play since I reset my settings mid week , so grabbed ten minutes whilst I took the wife shopping . seems to have worked o.k on some estuary gulls

Great pictures, from the Dee estuary I presume. Might I ask what lens you were using? I have yet to master the art of BIF.

[blackfox]

Yep from the estuary but it’s only a few hundred yards from home . I overlook it from our hilltop abode .. the lens is the 300mm
F4 + 1.4 tc giving 420mm @ f5.6 fully hand holdable .. gulls are great target practice especially if you have left over bread

[Bobblejack]

Thanks for that. I've just acquired the 300mm, and I already have the 1.4 tc. So I just need to get out and give it a go.

Well caught Jeff, a great practice session...

As you say, gulls are good for practice & looks like from the evidence here that your practice has paid off. 1st shot in particular really catches the eye.
