Nice shots. The stone wall makes an attractive background. Well composed. When it comes to long glass that one can handhold, that A 400/5.6 excels. Of course the slow aperture is a handicap in those situations, but I find that the the very compact dimensions of that puppy are an excellent tradeoff for a wide ap in decent light conditions. Paul
