Hi Jim,
Are you working with the monopod on these?

I noticed on another post about the Daffodil? You indicated a problem 
holding for what appeared a vertical frame?

I'm sure if you have the monopod and you aren't using it all the time, you 
should make the effort to do so.

Simply because you'll get better at using camera, long lens and monopod for 
more successful photos if you do. I realize at times it seems awkward, but 
the more you work with it and learn the quick motions and changes for 
adjustment , no question your successful hit rate will go up. And that's 
regardless of shutter speeds..

With your rig can you change vertical to horizontal by merely pressing a 
release button and rotate the camera direction?
cheers,
ted
