Thanks Tom. The ultra long lens makes it pretty easy to blur the
background.

Here's another shot from yesterday's walk in the woods. Again this is
with the A 400/5.6, the A2X-S Converter and the Sigma 500 Super flash
with magnifier lens -- all on the *istD. This guy was near the same
stream where I shot the blue dragonfly. He's perched on a weed. The
background is a clump of dark green leaves directly behind the insect
with deep shade above.I positioned myself to get the leaves behind
him. Handheld 5.6 @ 1/750th, high speed synch on the Sigma flash.
