Water Rail

[Stan]

The water rail was again very visible at Slimbridge and was more out in the open than last visit so plenty more shots. This one I hope is a bit different, shot as he was crossing the water having picked up a little snack. I have left more room on the left than usual to avoid cutting into the circular ripple. Shot with the Sigma 150-600 but only at 200mm

Crikey Stan it's night and day with that lens. Everything is just so sharp and colourful. (Must not, must not, must not change gear)

Looks a belter of a lens, does it work with your Canon 1.4TC?

Shape, nice colours and good composition. You're certainly getting some good results with the lens.
