The area was actually kind of desolated by hurricane sandy but still managed to get a few shots. I tried out the 300 2.8 Ai-S with 1.6 autofocus teleconverter on the D800. I was impressed by the reach, but there was a lot of chromatic aberration in the converter so I ended up not using it early on in the shoot. Oh well. I think the bright sunlight brought that out a lot more. Here's a white heron in the grass taken from maybe 200 ft away?

[ATTACH]34869[/ATTACH][ATTACH]34870[/ATTACH]Back to the D800, this time with the 300 2.8 Ai-S without the teleconverter (partial crop). [ATTACH]34871[/ATTACH]Wife took quite a few shots of me, here's one...[ATTACH]34872[/ATTACH]And I took a gazillion shots of her, here's one...[ATTACH]34873[/ATTACH]We spent more time shooting each other and our friends (another couple) than the scenery/wildlife, LOL....all in all a fun day. And to cap it off, my wife got some nice shots of a turkey on the road from our car (I had only my 50 mm on at the time while she still had her 55-200 DX lens, and this is an uncropped image).
