Took the Tamron out to play with Ospreys

[coastalconn]

Well ever since I got the Tokina, my poor Tamron 200-500 has just been sitting in a case looking lonely. I decided to take it out to play today. It was strange shoting it after getting used to the Tokina. At under 3 pounds I felt like I should shoot it one handed.. Anyways, it still is a pretty sweet lens.. Comments welcome..

As always, wonderful. I'm lost without my 150 - 500 as it is still out for repairs. I tried some landscapes but really want to get back to birds.

LOL, yup

That sucks, I thought about selling the Tamron, but if something happened to my Tokina and I couldn't shoot birds I would be devastated.. I hope you get it back soon...
