ROFL. There's absolutely NOTHING more amusing (to me anyways) than someone trying to impose THEIR skewed values on others. So you're a prude. Get over your issues. Almost 400 pages of 5D2 photos. Not all of 'em are gonna be puppies and babies. Lol.

For the record, my 6 year old daughter and my girlfriend both saw the photo, and both commented on it. My daughter's comment? "She's really pretty daddy!" Perversion is in the eye of the beholder, I suppose.

So you can see her skin. Big whup. I've seen more suggestive Pepsi commercials.

What's happened to freedom of speech? You are the one imposing your (evidently non existent) values on the poster concerned. This may or may not be a spectacular image but it is soft porn and should not be in a general discussion area. The correct area has been provided for this sort of image.

There are some of us left who care for traditional family standards of decency. If you don't like someone else's opinion, tough luck.


Instead of loving things and using people, why not use things and love people? :-)

Wow. That's a lot of assumptions for one post. Good on ya. :)

Soft porn? Seriously? LOL. I can't even respond to that. :rolleyes:

Anyways, [Sarcasm]fun as this can be [/sarcasm], I'm really just here to enjoy the photos and enjoy the experience. Continue if you want, but I won't be partaking. :)

Taken on Qualicum Beach, Vancouver Island, Canada. Handheld, no IS, and 60% crop, due to the fact that the Eagle was FAR beyond my 300mm reach. Hence the poor quality of the image.

I'm not looking to pick up a better IS USM telephoto. 100-400L, I hope. :)

Thanks! It was, indeed. I was having a hard time getting the eagle in focus, and the moon in focus as well. I was shooting at f14 and higher and STILL couldn't get it right. :/ Depth of Field schooled me.

One of those areas where an 800 2.8 on a SOLID tripod would have been GREAT! Lol.

I'm not sure how to go about proving that it is an authentic photo, but all day long, I've been getting repeated "that's not a REAL shot is it!?" or "Photoshopped!" as comments. :(

Drizzly outside but managed to get a few of one of my fave subjects. Today I used the 85 lens. Am thinking I might like the 135 a little better.....the jury is still out;)

Really? Soft porn? I was a little surprised to see it in this section, but not taken aback. It might make my wife question what I was looking at for a moment (I hope not, but who knows), but in the larger scheme of the internet it is hardly something to be worried about--there's more skin shown during a Superbowl commercial. And soft porn? Really, you might want to work on your terminology a bit. This is far from soft porn. It is a really nice photo, by the way.

Yeah,it was a nice shot, made me want to go fire off some knuckle babies. If your wife and kid are going to peer over your shoulder while you peruse a photo forum then you married unwisely!

This is why I love my girlfriend so much - my 5D2 was a present from HER. I was shooting with a 40D, and I was lamenting that the 40D was limiting my development as a photographer. So, she dragged me (kicking and screaming and against my will, I swear) to the local camera store, and bought the 5D2, a battery grip and a bunch of extras, all in one fell swoop. Keep in mind, this was about 2 or 3 months into our relationship.

I knew that day, that this was the woman I would eventually marry.

Ok, I gotta stop. I'm gettin all misty. I love my 5D2 SO much. *sniffles*
