Babies are always cute. Unfortunately mute swans are super aggressive where I live & are driving out many species of desirable ducks and other waterfowl.

Wild species are cruel. Sparrows, magpies, mynahs, and so on are not as polite as we civilized humans are. :grin:

Quarter scale Messerschmitt ME 262.

This lens never lets me down. Light weight (compared to my 500mm), super sharp and focuses like a champ!
This photo is taken with an EOS 5D3. Shutterspeed 1/400 sek.

These guys do not stay still long, at all. The fact that it was able to lock on to that tiny thing, that well, in the 2s it sat still was pretty shocking to me. The MkI would have still been trying to sort out where to try and focus...

Finally got a chance to break this thing out! I tried to use it very briefly with a crappy filter on it so everything came out looking like sludge. Removed the filter today and got better quality, but still need to work on technique. Picked up this hobby a little under a year and a half ago and I'm fully addicted. Wandered into Joshua Tree National Park this morning and caught a few shots of some wildlife.
