WOW! This is simply FABULOUS, Bill! I don't think I have seen a better sandhill crane action capture - the detail and clarity is amazing! I shoot sandhills with my 300mm f2.8 as well, but I cannot get near this close - will be going next month to catch the fall migration. Anyway, super Congratulations on this amazing Finalist - Hope to see it with Gold next round! #9749425
