The Strip!

But what is cool is the way you got them to put your copyright on the runway!

lol

Now for something a little different
This is from Cutting Horse Association of Nebraska Futurity (CHAN) that I shot for 4 days September 24-27. I need to look but I think this is the horse that won it.
As always at an indoor horse show the light was unbelievably bad. I kept switching from high ISO available light to flash and back. I am busy putting proofs up for sale on my web site but here is one of the high ISO ones for your comments. This was at ISO 1600 and the fastest shutter speed I could muster with an F/2 lens was 1/500th. And I still had to push process a full stop Considering conditions I think maybe it turned out ok but my eyes are blurry from hours of PP!

I love this lens for my business!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!

Canon 1D MkII, 100 F/2, ISO 1600, 1/500th, F/2. Slight curves adjustment and then Imagenomic NoisewarePro for noise. Very slight sharpening in CS3.

Great capture, Matonajin! Love it...

If I'm lucky, just might be getting this lens (used) this weekend.

Yep, I got double lucky, got a used lens, AND I found some (nile) ducks on the way back home.
Ofcourse I must shoot my cats as well.

Some from my walk with my daughter tonight. I think all of these are at f/2, and all on the 1Ds II:

You, sir, make this lens absolutely shine. It's a gem on your camera.

I, like many others, have been considering the 135L, but after finding this lens last night (and trying out a friends 85 1.8 that I see to be very similar) will most probably put the funds into this instead.
