Wow, lots of awesome shots in here! 1, 4, 7, 12, and 16 are my faves (I can't possibly narrow it down any further than that). I can see why you love the new lens!!

 

[Rayna']

[deggimatt]

Fantastic-- what camera are you using? what lens?

 

[Mainiac]

Holy crap! Those are amazing! I love #1 #4 #5 #6 #8 #13.:thumbup:

They are all awesome, but my fav is #4!! The detail in it is amazing! That last shot is a great one out of focus or not.

Cheers

PLEASE COMMENT?!?!?!! PLEASE COMMENT?!?! Like you would have to ask... It's a given that people would comment on your pictures. Not only the fact that you are using a very impresive lense, but simply the fact that you are a great photographer whatever lense you are using.

many thanks everyone.

The photos were taken with a Canon EOS 1D mkII

As for lenses...

The new lens is my Canon EF 300mm F2.8 IS usm L (ok so its about 3 months old now but this was my first full day out with it )
and a Canon 70-200mm F2.8 IS usm L
both used with and without a 2x extender II

Stunning images there. Not a bad one amongst them! No11 cracks me up though. Absolute corker.

I need a 1d

 

[RedDevilUK]
