 A magpie jumping to the ground.

I do have the same strange effect here as in this one.



The whole seems to be blurred but the bird and a part of the fence are in focus. My guess (for the moment) is that it is the combination of this lens and moving it while shooting.

Very cool effect, you'll rock when you can achieve it at will.

So I'm not the only one who notices that effect.
Didn't like it in the sports image but like it here. Maybe it's because the focus is more selective or because the bird and the area of focus on the fence don't line up. It looks like you glued a picture of a bird in that location.

Cool shot. In the image the bird appears closer than the section of fence in focus, but that must be an illusion.

LOL, that's surprising to say the least, you only saw one magpie that's why the rest of the scene was in a sort of glitch ;-)

Man. This looks WEIRD! I see how it happened, but my brain doesn't like it! :-)
