Not such a glamorous image as my last I guess, but this female was only around for seconds on this occasion and the sunshine was pretty absent. 840mm and cropped.

I generally don't get decent results using my 1.4 Teleconverter, so I tend to leave it in the bag. On this occasion it seems to have worked fine, proving it's most likely my technique that's lacking. Once fitted, I think it's important to steady the end of the lens hood as at 840mm the shutter slap doesn't help and thus any movement renders the image soft/not 'so' sharp. Apparently the 1DX MKii is far better when using a Teleconverter....comments/advice welcome :)
PS. I always use a remote switch when shooting with my 600mm.
