Peregrine taken on a 40D 1960mm ! (Sigma 500mm X 2.0 X 1.4 X 1.4), focused with live view, remote release, tripod. Some blood from dinner visible on breast feathers.
Surprised you did not fall over with that set up lol. cracking shot of a great bird of prey :)
Great capture. How far away was it? I wouldn’t have thought stacking converters would have given such a good result.
Good shootin, especially through so much glass…it must have been very sunny :D
Was this a stakeout or opportune shot?
Mikka- I know a couple of spots to look, came one evening for a look, came back the next day with the gear.

bigalguitarpicker – I’m guessing 40m-ish approx, roughly, there-abouts…. Sat watching for about an hour, 1st with bare lens, then with 1.4, 2.0, 1.4 & 2.0 etc. She barely moved apart from looking left or right so most pics taken were similar (kind of nice to know I wasn’t any disturbance). Small web size jpeg looks OK, looks less sharp on the full size RAW/Tif. Light was good, bright evening light, 6.30 pm.
