I just looked at your site. Ha, your doing alright. So maybe you can tell me, do you find yourself doing a lot of post processing? In the image above, I did some, but the more I look at it, the more I see it could use more. Or, shoot it better to start with. :)

Thanks Alex. This is where a 1D1 would shine. ;)

Second one is really cool. Photoshop the frisbee out of her hand and it looks like she is doing Tai-chi or something. Nice capture. What lens?

Thanks Jay. I thought she was doing some kind of Tai-Chi when I first saw her. From my angle, I couldn't see her hand at fist, then she made a couple of 'swings' with the frisbee. I guess the first shot is where she was aiming. :)

I was in the park to shoot birds, so I had an old 300L/4 non-IS with a Sigma 1.4x TC on a 30D to take this. :)

Once again it looks nice. What lens do you use mainly for birds? I just ordered a 1.4x canon tele-conv from B&H should be here the 31st. Gonna use it on my dig rebel along with my 70-200 f/2.8L IS. Should give some nice focal length zoom range. :-D (448 max I think right?)

A 1.4 on a 200 is 280mm. You'll have to get close.

I have used a lot of lenses in the last year. A 100-400L IS, a 400L and now a Bigma, which I am selling, and then this 300L. :)

you forgot the dig rebel 1.6 (or 1.5?) conversion factor on EF/L-Lenses. Or do they not stack, IDK im new to this.

Well, you can add in the crop factor, but I never do. 35mm is dead, why go by that? :)

Yea, but FF isn't dead. Which essentially uses a 35mm viewing angle right? Once again just venturing guesses here.
