New lens and first L

New lens(at least for me anyways) which I bought used from somebody locally. Canon 70-200 F4 L, which is my first L. I just hope I don't get addicted to red rings and start buying more.

Anyways, first thoughts was that its lighter than I thought, I already knew it was pretty light. Also since my other lenses are Sigma's, and I heard it takes some time getting used to the opposite directions of the zoom ring. I got used to it fairly quick. The AF is VERY quick. Image quality is great, and of course the lens is extremely sharp!

So I guess the most ideal of subjects to post up when people get new lenses are flying ducks? Well I hope flying people will do =P

Grats on your first red ring! Where did you take these pics at? Last time I checked (which was 5 sec ago), there's no snow anywhere in the bay area. Good freeze action (pun intended)!
