I sat all morning watching this one last leaf on the entire tree but couldnt go outside since i was busy taking care of Jr.
It was raining, then it started snowing, i knew it would fall off any time.
when the wife woke up i instantly jumped up and went outside.
grabbed a plastic grocery bag put the camera in it and tore a hole to stick the lens hood out.
this was the only angle where i could get a decent shot without the background being filled with other trees or junk.

i am not sure which i like more. maybe the 2nd one.

I'm thinking of selling my 70-200mm f/4L IS to get this lens and a 28mm f/1.8 USM.

I carry around my 85mm more then my 70-200. It's faster, better IQ (when I shoot at wider apertures) and SMALLER. I'm thinking once I get a 135L and maybe a 200 2.8L (dunno if I really need a lens that long much) I'll sell my 70-200. I would eventually maybe like a 70-200 2.8 with IS or OS that could be useful for weddings, which my 70-200 is not.

Thanks all! :)

Don't judge from internet-size though. Original image @ 100% (external link)wasn't that sharp at all. :)


And another one from this afternoon:

I like the 2nd one... just a tinge of added color creates a contrasting "feel". :cool:
