    those are real nice shots, great work with a 200mm. I'm considering selling my 50-500 zoom and getting a fast 300 prime and 1.4 converter. I think the prime would be sharper and with the converter I'd still get good reach for those times I need it. The clarity of your 200mm cropped is encouraging.

    Nice work - especially considering you're using a 200mm. Very difficult to get close enough as I'm sure you're aware of.

    I like the first and last ones.
