Thanks for looking and your kind comments Dave and Ben.
Graham's advice to use the Bigma as a close up lens has proved spot on, considering this was taken at full 500mm extension, I was pleased.

Thanks Jim.
I used IS1 and a Manfrotto monopod, in body IS is a blessing when using the Bigma!

Thanks Graham.
It really is thanks to your advice that I managed this pic, I listened to what you said about using the Bigma for close up/insect pics and it worked.
