Very cute. I have that lens and the VC is phenomenal but as with most any zoom lens it can be a little soft at maximum focal range. I live close to railroad tracks and once last year I stepped out my back door and shot a railroad car with that lens at 300mm handheld. The shutter speed was 1/15 sec. and the printing on the side of the car came out reasonably sharp. I know that sounds unbelievable but why would I have any reason to lie about it. I don't get any commissions from the sale of that lens. All I had to do was stop breathing and stop my heart from beating for several seconds.

I truly enjoyed looking at the images. Good job.

@ EricD; Thanks. Do you need any of my pictures for the National Geographic magazine?? LOL

@ Jerry; The VC on this lens is really incredible. Glad you like the pics.
