Thanks for your kind comments. I need to replace update this sometime to include the Exif. The shot was taken at 1/40th sec, no tripod but lens rested on a boulder. One twig in front of the grouse body annoys me but he was gone ion a few seconds so not much opportunity for different compositions. I am delighted with the lens, its sharp, clear and the IS really does work.
