Fantastic detail Karen. Ideally a bit more room RHS would have been perfect. I am beginning to think that TC of yours is glued to the lens. I am sure it would come off if you tried :biggrin: :wink:

TCs are meant to be removable? :eek:

Lovely low POV Karen.

I do remove it sometimes you know :biggrin: I was waiting for other waders though that are not so bold as the turnstones so would have needed the convertor on

A great capture Karen.
Too close is better than too far away I suppose :smile:
Well done.
