I used the Canon EF 400mm f/5.6L telephoto lens this time too, but operated it with slightly more open shutter compared to last time (See the post 'Some Sunset Snaps'). No tripod required, because the sun was still bright, full manual mode @ 1/4000s, f/25 and ISO-100. The shot is a little sharper than last time and I could crop it to less than 1/3rd of the original size (3888px to 1200px).
Later, I felt that I should have used the 2X converter too for a closer shot. But, if I tried to go downstairs for the 2X converter, the sun would have gone down the horizon. Next day onwards, the climate became a little cloudy and I could not get a proper sunset shot. By now, the tree has already become covered with leaves ... and I am posting this picture for now, atleast for this year :)
