I was bored last week and decided to go to the LA Zoo and the Griffith Park Observatory to test out the telephoto lens. Since it was a weekday there weren't any crowds so it was nice. I used my Canon Rebel T1i and the 100-400mm f4-5.6 L lens mounted on a monopod. Here are the ones i've had a chance to touch up:

Here is the monster lens, I call it the 2 liter:

Incredible shots. The chimps made my day. Just as I was looking at them, my dog hit the lever on my chair so it dropped on top of her, adding to the humor of the photos. Their expressions are priceless. Great series, awesome lens.
