OT because this is the PDML and it wasn't a Pentax lens but....

Last weekend I spoiled myself in a maximum way and bought myself a Fuji
150-600mm zoom lens.

I decided that since I had more or less failed at night sky photography
I would try failing at wildlife/ bird photography.

And then it got too cold to go outside and try using it......

So it goes.
