Regis, great shots, my mentor said "clouds can be your friend!" You've knocked it out of the park here. Jeff


Yes, Jeff, clouds can be your friends and sometimes your enemy depending on the cloud's darkness. I thank you, Jeff, for your nice comment and for looking at my photos.

Thank you, merrytexan. I like Robins because of their orange feathers and when you see them, Spring is here. They get into our garden searching for worms and bugs and is a good time to take a photo of them because they are not as shy as other birds. Below is a Robin in our back yard.

I love it. Here are a couple samples of how Tammy helped get me through the winter dulldrums.


I must say if this is the same lens Reg uses , yours look more like they were
taken with a canon or nikon lens . I would even say they are better IMO .

I love robins, too, Regis! Today I saw a field with at least 50 robins in it!

I never saw that many Robins in one area. That must have been an awesome sight.

Thank you, Bruce. I'm waiting for my Cherry and Asian Pear trees to blossom, then I can try out my new Canon 100-400 II lens at close range on the Bees. I will also use my Tamron at 600mm for the same shots to see which is better. Below is my Tamron 150-600mm moon shot the same night I took the Canon 100-400 II moon shots.

Nice Moon shot Regis... you can't beat the Tamron 150-600mm lens for the money...

Thank you, Bruce. Both the Canon 100-400 II and the Tamron 150-600 are about equal in sharpness but the Tamron will give you a larger moon image. It's easier to hand hold the Canon, being smaller and lighter plus having a great stabilizer but the difference in size and weight is minimal. I get good hand held shots with both of them.
