Great shots, and I love that second one, looks like some kind of strange mirror effect. I know it's 2 birds, but it's just a very cool shot....steve

I like your shots. Great bokeh and some nice frozen moments.

Here is a shot I took of a gull yesterday with the 70-200 2.8 IS.

nice shots, I've just taken delivery of my lens too, need to go take some pics

We have many types of gulls here in the north east UK, we call them all "****e hawks" pronounced "sh eye t". Don't stand underneath them for too long or you'll find out why their so named.


I'll try anything once, twice if I like it :cool:
