I got the 100-400 L yesterday and caught this guy on my deck this morning. I'm not so sure he likes the size of the thing I'm pointing at him.

400mm at 12 feet doesn't have much DoF. This was at 5.6 allowing hand-held at 1/90. No crop, but it needed some sharpening. Tomorrow I'll try flash with for some more DoF.

Ian, please note that I got the front of him. This is the end you're supposed to shoot. :)

Ian has an attraction for hindquarters...

...we are supposed to be tolerant of his personal choices... :wink:

Yeah, but where are his legs? He does have a pair, doesn't he? Or did he suffer the same fate as Gitzo? :lol:

Serious though, really nice shot.
