Nice one, ya, seen a black wolf last year in Yellowstone lead the pack until they took down a young elk.

500 W 1.4 extender. Still looks good for 700mm
Jay Ryser
Nice shot – it does look good for 700mm
Ken McElroy replied
Thanks, Tim and Jay – the 1.4 usually doesn’t detract much but the 2.0 is much dicier.
Jay Ryser
Yeah, I finally sold my 2.0 as I was never satisfied with the results

Wow very nice capture…color is awesome..most excellent clarity for 700mm using 1.4 extender…your lighting was an added asset!
