nice, Malla. even on a dreary day you can see the potential. this is a lens that i may get someday because the length really suits me for my trips to the dog beaches.

Great sharpness and contrast is quite nice especially considering the weather! :)


Great shots are like great parking spaces... if you're not quick, it's gone!

Nice job! Great to see what potential my 70-200 2.8 has. Now to get off this dang computer and take some shots! If you can do it in that weather, I should be able to do it here in Northern California!
