I bought a 40D about a month ago and while i was taking photo's on the Williamsburg bridge i realized that i had never really tested out the Servo on it. So i saw this bike rider comming down the bridge and decided to give it a test run. He showed me some true NYC class :lol:

Compared to my Rebel XT i am very happy with the performance of the AI Servo on the 40D

That's awesome haha for some reason I dislike people who bike like that. With their arms crossed or behind their backs, its like they're showing off haha. And I see that a LOT b/c I live in davis CA (bike capital of the US).

You should have kicked his front tire as he drive by, give him a reason to be an A-Hole. :)

I actually like the finger shot. Very unique and interesting. Did he say something as he passed by as well, or did he think his gesture was enough ? :D

I didn't take offense, in fact i laughed as he rode by. In his defense it was like 9:30 Sunday morning, I'm usually grumpy if i'm up that early on a Sunday too. :mad:

Aridan, he must have thought that his gesture was enough to get his point across. There was no miscomunication here i know what he meant..:lol:

Savone, thats not a bad idea.. would have been a great capture had i kicked out his front tire and kept shooting!!:p

This is great. It's times like these where a nice big fire log would do great, like on Big Daddy (and the rollerbladers). GIve this prick a reason to flip you off!

LOL this shot made my day after a LONG day at work. Thanks :D
