Very nice. 3 and 5 are my favorites, but I'd hang any of them on my wall.

Yes actually! I spent my time waiting for 107 watching some under the pedestrian bridge I'm standing on. Fishing is fairly popular in this area.
Thanks to you other 3 for your comments :)

My Canon 10-22 for all except 5 and 7, which were the 100-400. Seems like I only ever use those two!
