Another one, with the lens at "full stretch" (500mm) - if you rt click on the photo, then "image properties" all will be revealed !

Almost all anyway - the photo I have posted is greatly reduced in size and quality to be a sensible size on the forum. As shown it is 85kB, the original copy on my PC is 10.5 mB
