Sharpness and focus at their best. Not Easy to reach such result with these subjects. Liked.

Thanks for that GIULIO57. I was disappointed with the results since fitting a Pentax 1.4 convertor but I have been advised that I need to increase the shutter speed. This photo was shot at 1/500 second so your comment makes me feel much better about splashing out on the convertor. I'm trying the next photo shoot with shutter speed at at least 1/800 second and up to 1/1250 if light allows.

Great shot David, focus is spot on as is sharpness and exposure.

I sympathise with your comments about the 1.4 convertor (here and in the forum). My first experiences with it were very disappointing - perseverance has paid off, however I still tend to use the 150-450 without the convertor and crop the final image. Most of my BIF shots are taken at speeds of 1000th or greater which can lead to a little extra work in post to remove noise but with modern software that is not too onerous
