Was this taken with a point and shoot? Looks a bit sharp.

Certainly a Greylag and looks a purposeful one too, a touch tight for me though and for me at least rather oversharpened, that 200mm is obviously a sharp lens to start with so you may have to alter your PP to suit...

Hi Vince, excellent shot, very sharp indeed! I guess you are happy with the 200mm f/2 ?

Cheers
