Nice red eye. Is this a crop? Is this with the 300 2.8 plus 2x? The difference in sharpness vis-a-vis your previous images is noticeable.

I think lowering the saturation will be better as the sky has become deep blue. It would have been great if you had used a lower shutter speed and narrow aperture for a greater depth of field. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

thanks Sabyasachi. yes, this is about 50% crop. i am happy about the performance of new lens and tc combo. it is even easier to crop images. 18 mp sensor of 7d now appears more useful.

Nice image and flaming red eyes. You've got yourself a good buy in the lens that you have invested on. Thanks for sharing.

Nice head turn. The red eyes look piercing. Agree about the saturation. Thanks for sharing.
