Great shots. Your pics are always so sharp and so well composed. You are a master with that Tamson 100 X 600mm lens.

Very nice shots. We have the same species out here. They were introduced a long time ago. They are quite a nuisance now. They have killed most of the native Western Grey squirrels in the neighborhoods around here. They can be very aggressive.
Thank you for your information on these squirrels, I appreciate it.

nice photos, How do you like the 600mm? Do you use it on a tripod?
I like the tamron 150-600mm lens very, very much. It is a fantastic lens and the best one I have ever had. The Sigma's come close but this lens does much better as far as resolution and their VC, fast focus and E-band coatings are better than the Sigma 150-500mm and the 50-500mm lenses of which I have owned.

Thank you very much for the compliment but I don't know if I would call myself a master. The lens is easy to use, it's the camera and the photographer's knowledge of both instruments that make a difference.

The tamron lens, and the Canon 6D with you behind it, is a marriage made in heaven !

Amen. Thank you, imagemeister. You're absolutely right about that.

Nice shots Regis. I love the way squirrels pose. It is almost like they know their pictures are being taken.

Sunny day in a park with squirrels everywhere. I didn't have any peanuts to give them to pose so I took my best shots of them on the run.
They were all between 20-30 feet away.

Very nice Regis!!! What a lens you've got there... I love the juxtapositioning of the bottom two shots. It looks like they're having a stare down. That 'thing' sure produces some sharp results. Did you need to do any micro-focus adjustments in camera when you first put on this lens, or are these results truly out-of-box? And please forgive me if you've already posted on this. Thanks.
