Great shot, I really like how he seems to stare with approval.[Y]


I can hand-hold my 600mm lens at 1/200th to 1/320th second with critically sharp results without IS. The slowest I have ever held it without any motion blur was an amazing 1/60th second! Don't know why I would want IS for.[]

I'm not so pleased with the head angle on this one, I wish the head was turning about 2 degrees toward me. Thanks for viewing and commenting.

I'd love to not be pleased with such a shot. As usual, Nate, wonderful sharpness, color and composition.
