Check out these budding Canon photographers practicing macro with their 70-200 f2.8's :)

The Falcon is Australia's most common car; I'm not sure what the equivalent is in the US; but these things are everywhere. The ad is a bit of a joke.

Lolwat, and the 70-200 has a 1.4M minimum focus distance. Pro macro lens ftw :P

also nice free advertising for Canon :)

They are doing a "Paparazzi" imitation, as though the car is a celebrity, rather than an actual car. Hence the 70-200's are part of that "look." Still funny to see them aimed at the window from 50cm away though,with flashes firing rapidly.

They will probably get out of focus blurs with a lot of burnout from reflected flash, but hey thats OK, just call it 'art' and sell it for a fortune!

Pay close attention to the camera holding technique of a few of them.
The lens is obviously getting a bit heavy.
