What in the world would you shoot with that. If I took it to the track I guess I could photo the eyes of the drivers as they passed by. The Site

Had a productive afternoon...picked up park passes at GIJoes and went birding with Chris. We went looking for (and found) a burrowing owl (something none of us had photographed before) and we saw 5 bald eagles (I got 2 shots of them in a field but nothing to write home about...just as a memory). There were 3 adults and two juveniles...just haning about...the burrowing owl was so cool. So much littler that I thought...almost kestral size. We photo'd a kestral today too but I didn't get anything to write home about. Where did ya go? WF or Ankeny or ?

The eagles were in the same area as the owl. .. It's Permie's world, we just live in it! ~CDS

That narrow DOF is awesome for isolating your subject but your right, it takes a bit to get used to no IS.
