I think I start to love my 55-300. Now long time I couldn't see lots of interesting Birds in Fly therefore I shot other things.
I know that I need a lot of practice and I will do it.

Today around 08.00 a.m I was just walking around with the D5100 and the 55-300. I am going to post my photos in different threads I think it is suitable.

Here is one a trash can made of old truck tire

Wish I had joined this forum before I bought my 55-200. I can see where the extra 100mm could easily come to use. Nice shots!

Nice candids Michael. Have not used my 55-300 very much yet. Will have to get out and work with it thanks to your inspiration.

Well, I must say I am AMAZED with the quality of this (very affordable!) lens! I asked for EXIFs only to be sure which photos had been taken at 300mm (since, I expect that is the "softest spot" of this lens). It works GREAT!

Just to be 100% sure - is it this one: http://goo.gl/es4W0 ?
