Fernandina was one of my favorite landing sites. The volcano was erupting when we were there and our boat detoured for us to see the eruption.

Which boat were you on? GE II? Was that April last year? I heard about that lava flow from our guides. Lucky you!!!!!

That's a great shot with lots of detail. I just purchased this lens, hope mine is as sharp as yours. Well done!

Thanks again, Steve. I sold my 70-200/2.8L IS after buying this lens. I'd have to stop that one down to f/3.2 anyway. The f/4 is almost half the weight. And it's sharp wide open as you can see.
