I'm really eyeballing that 17mm TS-E. One day..

Yeah so am I, the added AF capability is making it very attractive.

but this one was unusually curious (or maybe just had camera envy?) ;-)a

Look at its head.. it's clearly peering at something down below. Were you wearing pants? :lol::p

LOL that sounds painful. :lol:

On the other hand, credit must be given to Dave for this ingenius idea. If exposing oneself mesmerises wildlife such that intimate shots can be taken, then I ain't wearing no pants next time I'm out.

You guys wanna do a nekkid zoo meet?

Oh my, I think I'm too ... ummm... well ... too something for this conversation!

So I'll segue...I just added some sort of widget thing to both of my blogs so people can now subscribe :) Good me, though I have no idea what that really means LOL

Anyhoo, if you'd like to subscribe and keep up with what's going on - and I promise to be a good blogger! - you can do your thing here -> photography only blog (external link) (that I hope to make a little more "personal" too this year) and/or here -> for the personal romping stuff (external link) with a little of the photo stuff thrown in :D

Next task is figuring out how to subscribe to everyone else's blog and then how to actually see what I've subscribed to.

That's my geeky weekend moment...

Nice shots Dave. Does the 5D II have AF point linked Spot Metering?

No I don't believe so (maybe in LV mode though).

I'm generally a centre focus point shooter anyway.
