Took this picture yesterday afternoon. The quality is not so good, but I like the situation. Taken with 100-400 and Canon 40D.

Thanks! No without extender. The 2.0 III creates so much quality loss on a 100-400, the range is amazing, but sharpness.... say good by to it. You really need a prime for extenders.
These shots are with the 100-400 at 400mm with some cropping.
