Yep! I use this lens 90% of the time I think the two were shot at 500mm and the one was 450mm

Thanks guys!

Awesome. =D>

Very nice photos! My camera has a bad battery pack in it. Need to get on that.

Those are some nice clear shots. You can really see the detail. Nice job.

Great shots Waterfowler =D>

Totally amazing!

Thanks a lot guys!

Wow! Talk about sharp photos! Great work, Mark! =D>

Fella on a local board took some pictures like yours of ducks a couple years ago, and I'm always finding myself going back to admire the pictures again. Great shots.

Real nice shots....

Waterfowler: You said you are using a Sigma Lens... What Body do you use, and how many Mpxls does it push? I bought a Canon Digital Rebel that I have used for years. I feel bad because my point and shoot is 12.1 Mpxl and my Rebel is only 6.1. Back then though, that was like triple there was in most cameras!

Thanks guys!

I shoot a Nikon D300 its 12MP.

6 MP is fine to have every body thinks more MP the better the picture so not true. More MP means more noise/grain in picture. I know a few guys that shoot canon and it has like 15MP but there a option where you can shoot it at 10MP they all shot it at the 10MP because of better picture less grain/noise.

See MP its what sell's the camera anymore that why you see all these Cameras putting more MP in cameras because most people think this "camera has 16MP that must be better and I can get better picture because its a 16MP camera." if you shooting a DX camera 12MP is the most you really want.

Here a link about the myth https://www.kenrockwell.com/tech/mpmyth.htm

If you want better picture buy better Glass(lens) for your camera. The lens is what takes the pictures.
