Beautifully photographed. I only see these as a lovely flash of brilliant blue.
Best wishes,

That's just great! You have just answered my query on the forum about using the 1.4x teleconverter with this zoom lens. If I can get as good pics as this then it will be money well spent.
Hi Rob, hope you're not confusing the DA*300 with the DA 55-300 as per your query on the forum. I have a 55-300 and wouldn't use it with the TC as I don't believe it would provide satisfactory AF or IQ quality.
