I finally got a chance to sort through the RAWs from saturday morning. What a sight this thing is!

It was a hazey morning, which didn't help the shots, but here goes: Coming around North Head.

The sunrise reflrcting off her side (If I had thought about it more before hand I might have been able to find a vantage point where the sunrise was in the background of some of my shots......would have been a long drive very early in the morning, but maybe next time....)

I used all of my lenses on Saturday morning! But these are all the Sigma 70-200 and 1.4 TC. Except #4, which is the 70-200 by itself.

The America's boat with her is very cool. She is stunning.
