  1. #1 Kong was here! 
    Empire State Building - shot with 800mm from the roof of GM building on 59th Street & 5th Ave. A bit soft - but I still like it -

    Nice shot. Was that a 400 lense with a doubler?

    I'm guessing it's the PL-converted 400mm Canon + 2X setup shown here:

    ...looks like some more antennas have been added since Kong's visit.

    I've been told that the top of that building was originally designed as a dock for Zeppelins.

    That's VERY soft.

    Is it a backfocus problem?
