Nope! I've already fiddled with it to get the cat out of the bag LoL
Tele is 50mm with a crop factor of two - more or less 100.
FYI; the sky was from overcast to threatening, hence making it possible 
for the sensor to accept the variation between the darker and lighter 
zones - I'd never have dared the shot in open/sunny light.
Thanks for your nice comment

Now, you try :-) .
Bien amicalement de Metz
