A Perfect Match!

I loved this image I got on the Delta Ponds bridge. The bird was a perfect match for the cable.
The only thing done to the image was sharpening, necessary because of using a Kenko 1.4x converter with the 80-400 VR. Point of focus was the cable, note how sharp the feet are. I shot in 'Vivid', which explains the rich colors.

Nikon D7000 ,Nikkor 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6D ED VR AF
1/1000s f/5.6 at 400.0mm iso250 full exif

Vern, Curious. I'm surprised that they say you can't use a teleconverter with the 70-300 but evidently you can with that lens? Why is that? Nice shot by the way, one of my favorite small birds. Linda S
