I struggled when I started too. I took tons of pics of animals but they didn't look that good, even with high quality equipment. It wasn't until I realized how close people were getting to their subjects that I started taking better pics. You have to get CLOSE!!!I am finding the transition from 1200mm to 450mm so damn hard. I was using a 2X teleconverter but the images just weren't that amazing. DSLRs are much harder than I thought
Now when I see an interesting subject, I won't even pick my camera up unless I can get close to it. If the terrain won't allow me to sneak closer, I say "well that's a cool bird"... and I move on...
