Just some play shots with my new 100-400.
Could have done with more DOF, but this was hand held in the evening with not much light around. Wanted to see how good the IS and brokhd was too.

Only a little PP. Levels, a light touch with the shadow/highlight tool and then some USM.

Yeah, I am not sure why the OOF area looks so noisy.
I think there may be a number of contibuting factors here:
- 20D at ISO 400
- May be an artifact of the 100-400 brohkd. I have not shot much with this lens much, so will have to see if this appears in other shots.
- The shadow/highlight tool and USM will have amplified anything that was already there.

Immediate foreground on both is very distracting. Crop some of it out? Otherwise, interesting shot.
