Nice shot, but it looks a little underexposed to me (especially around the head - can't see any eyes at all). What lens?

40D, 17-55mm f/2.8 IS, Sigma 30mm f/1.4, 70-200mm f/2.8L IS, 500D Close-up Lens, Speedlite 430EX with Demb Flash Diffuser Pro

I am a little suspicious about your "purple" duck (is it real or is it a decoy), but we will let you get by this time.

It is an unwritten forum "rule" that any major purchase mentioned must be accompanied by a duck to make it official. Otherwise, you might be subjected to shunning and ridicule.

Just kidding and welcome. Everything that I have heard about the camera has been very good.
