Hi Bill,
Considering that you were trying to shoot birds in flight, you seem to
have done a reasonably good job of getting them in focus on that second
shot, although it would be nice if they were a bit closer. There
doesn't seem to be any evidence of camera shake, so your tripod setup
must be working. On that first shot with the towers, I would rotate it
a bit to straigten the verticals if it were mine. What's most lacking
here is really compelling subject matter. I think a trip to Denali is
in store for you. First you buy the lens, then you go to Denali. Just
ask Ken :-).

I finally managed to get out with the 600 and do some shooting.
This les is a challenge to shoot with, to be sure.
Anyone using long lenses (Ken, Tom!!!) any tips or advice for using
one of these beasties would be appreciated.
Anyway, a couple of my less embarrasing atempts with the big gun are
here....
