Just rented a 70-200 f/2.8 IS II and all I can say is WOW> I am floored by the sharpness and contrast of the shots. I venture to say it outperformed the 135L I just tried. Absolutely incredible.

Nice shots and details. It's a compromise with the 70-200 over the 135 though. You give up supreme Bokeh for added sharpness. The 135 is the ultra-lizard King of bokeh monsters. ;)

Brilliant! While I am sure this might have been done before, I have never seen this.

Love it. :cool:

I forgot to say why this is such an amazing shot. The colors of the subject and background work nicely against each other, and the bokeh creates a very interesting pattern which complements the subject.

Thank you! Yeah it has been done before, but I have never tried it - it is a bit hard to get than I thought! Those babies move like a cheetah!

Sorry if this has been posted before. I did a major redo on the processing to make it look more accurate. I've looked at many many many landscape photos online and have never seen anything quite like this before. I was stoked to get such ideal conditions and timing.

The lighting is 100% natural as it was a very foggy sunset.
