I appreciate it. Hey MG. Like you, I really thought I could get a bit more DOF at F/22 - but those darn telephotos are pretty limited. (I can here Carl typing :) ). This was with a 600 and a 1.5 converter at 80 feet. I double checked with a DOF calculator - that gives me less then 3 feet of DOF - not much given the 40 or so feet of birds in the group. Thanks again, Ron I only have a few minutes of internet left, but just wanted to say thanks a lot everyone! I appreciate it.

You sure about that Ron? Looks more like f5.6 to me! That must be a spectacle to behold. “I used f/22 for this image to maximize the depth of field.”

Don’t even pretend for a second that you would’ve chosen to photograph a dirty, raggedy ole wolverine over all these birds. :)

Sorry you didn’t score on the wolverine. If it helps, this is a sweet image.
