While experimenting on a rainy morning, I cobbled together my old Ross 200mm 
and a 2X extender, and mounted them on the E-1 and a monopod.  Even at ISO 
800, the shutter speeds were ridiculously slow.  I concluded that a monopod 
is little help in this situation.  A tripod would have served me much better.

One image caught my eye because of the lateral motion allowed by the 
monopod, giving somewhat of an abstract rendering of a Cardinal on the 
feeder.
