LOWER CROMANE DOG WALK
This morning I was out with the dog as usual, and of course my camera. The lense was my 55-300mm + my 2x tele-converter, my aim was to get more practice with this setup, and hopefully take some birds in flight. Most shots were rubbish and got deleted, the following 44 are what remains from 125 taken, and most of these are only mediocre, but practice practice PRACTICE!! This setup only allows manual focus, so no chance of using the cameras continuous focus mode, which doesn't help with flying birds!
