Only the last 2 added were cropped versions of the first 2 in the lineup. The rest are uncropped original closeups.Thank you.

Nice shots. I want either the Tamron or the new Sigma 150-600. Will see how the test results come out on the Sigma(s), probably the lesser of the two if I go for Sigma, 1999 for the "Sport" version is a little much.
Thank you and good luck with whichever lens you choose. I'm sure you will be happy with either one.

Very nice. Don't be afraid to crop way in, especially on the first and second image. I'm afraid to do it less I get reamed by admin for messing with other members images.

I don't like to crop much or PP, I like to try and get good shots without changing them. Thanks for looking.

The pictures with flowers around 15 feet and the birds from 30-40 feet.At first I was unimpressed, thinking you had used a tripod. Then I realized you didn't. The finches on the feeder is darn good for a hand held shot at 600mm, IMO. In fact, I think they are all good, for those conditions. What was the distance to the subjects? It would be interesting to compare those same shots taken with a tripod and shutter remote.

The 150-600 has a lens tripod mount so it is balanced on the tripod. Here are some handheld shots. All taken at 600 mm.
