I just realized constrict is the guy with the hot models. I was wondering who it was, I had forgotten. Damn you Tom.

Great colours on the first 2 images technophile. Well done.

Here're some pics from a recent trip. I was most impressed with the performance of this lens, contrast and colour wise (these are straight from the cam, with just cropping, I think) - especially the flower pic, which I was suprised - I would not normally use this lens for flower/macro shots!

I *think* it is still picking up dust, but not sure.

efs17-55IS, 54mm, f11.0, 1/2000s, iso100

efs17-55IS, 55mm, f4.0, 1/160s, iso100

Some 'fake' panoramas (They're just narrow crops):

efs17-55IS, 55mm, f2.8, 1/4000s, iso100

efs17-55IS, 17mm, f4.0, 1/2500s, iso100

efs17-55IS, 17mm, f2.8, 1/10s, iso400

OK as I promised August here are some images from my latest shoot. I apoligize for the watermarks but some people just can't understand the concept of not stealing my images without permission! All of these were taken with the 17-55.

cool! those lizards are awesome!

Nice shots Eric..

Looks like EF-s will be a great line of lenses.

Wow really nice shots Erik. You know it showed me something. They're right, it doesn't have the rich saturation. Instead, it produced vibrant, natural colors that are true-to-life. Which is even better for us, because we can have both worlds if we want, with a simple click in PS we can turn out natural colors into vibrant ones, but honestly, I'm starting to like the natural look more and more.

Softening effect here too? Works for me. Great capture.

That's right, using gaussian blur and diffuse glow on a separate layer in Photoshop.
