Woohoo! I finished processing the Joshua Tree photos! Now, on to the Gold Country ones... Is that a light I see at the end of this tunnel?

Bah, humbug! Friday's suck. It means it's about time for me to go back to work. But, for now, I'm wearing my jammies...

I once thought I saw a light at the end of the tunnel but it turned out to be some idiot with a torch bringing me more work!

Uh huh.

Hi ya Mark Mike Max and Jim ~

So Mark what is Nosh??

Mike ..any reason you are feeling like that?I feel like that daily but I'm a girl ...lol

is it only me or do you guys feel that canon should redo the optics of the 70-200mm f/2.8 and f/2.8 IS to be on par with the 70-200mm f/4 IS

I mean look at the MTF compared to the 2.8 IS brethren

Uh huh.

im sure deb prefers the older, rugged look compared to the latter:

young, athletic, energetic, sexy, slender, and firmer butt


yes, of course she does:p

DEB!! I haven't been here except for a drop in over the last 24. Loved the bridge shots you posted.

they are correct...we've owned both and the IQ of the F4IS is better...it really is the best zoom canon makes.

I think a lot of the lenses could do with an update (starting with the 100-400 though)

I too like the way you think.

You're weird

I don't know if this is what Pete means but

NOSH
food : filling the freezer with all kinds of nosh.
• a small item of food : have plenty of noshes and nibbles conveniently placed.
• a light meal; a snack : in between noshes we explored the city.
