Got a 70-200 f/4L non-IS last week, finally giving me a little better reach. Still tons of cropping and LR4 work done here, but I'm sure you knew that already :D

This one was ok:

That daytime shot looks good to me! Nicely done. It's a great lens (I have one myself!)

Cheers,
Stephen

nice ... day shot is a cool one. Maybe invest in a tripod though... you'll be glad you did.

Hand held last Thursday evening...my very first try at shooting the moon. 250mm...I think I want more reach.

Got one, just didn't have it with me unfortunately ;) (although I'm starting to hate the mediocre one that I've got now that I have some heavy lenses)

Thanks......I'm actually toying with the idea of picking up (or renting first) the Canon 400mm
