... but no where near as nice as my 300mm f2.8 IS.

I had to laugh out loud at that one, thanks.

These two are from the Grand Lisboa Casino in Macau.

These are really unusual. Great shots.

Thanks, Willy, it's always worth checking out shop windows. There's another of my finds below.

u got one sharp copy of the fifty WAMGUY, picture looks great.. i would burn some midtones on the left to balance from the right in the BG. and maybe some on top of her hair.. looks great though!

^Thanks! Yeah, I guess I got lucky...? I really want to upgrade to the 1.4, but I don't want to sell my 1.8, since it's so sharp... Haha Thanks for the tip! I did a good bit of dodging and burning on that photo, so I might just have to be lazy now, though... Haha

Alice - That first shot given the light is really well done

Thank you Willy! I was lucky to get that shot as she normally jumps on me as soon as she sees me.

Gary - Great detail and colors!

Here's another one from my shoot yesterday...

This is really sharp Gary. It looks as if the flowers are floating.

Lens came today. First shots with it.

Shot this today in a Home Depot parking lot with the Nifty Fifty.

You're really getting some great shots. That first one - talk about selective focus! Great stuff.
