Helen and Aimee, many thanks for the comments. – Deebo and Mark, you are of course right, it is a real shame that tragedy makes headlines.. I was shocked myself to find out the next day that ( albiet distant.. ), my wifes brothers wife’s Nephew was in the back of the car.. He is now making a recovery and out of ICU . Thanks again for looking
Thanks for recent remarks.. Appreciated comments re web site. (Jim) . Aidan – I do agree , re Cutting some of the RHS of pic off, and bird maybe too central.
Thanks Mark …
Thanks Dave – yes it is a popular lens. There have been questions about some poor copies on the EOS Forum . I have sent my one back a couple of times, but self induced.. ( I dropped it.. ! ) , would not recommend that to anyone…:} A New IS system and all is well again.
Andy
Thanks John, for comments. Yes, the 100-400 is a very useful lens. Although it can struggle in low light Sports photography… Saving to get a 300 2.8L
Andy also, just checked the Exif.. I was sightly mistaken on the F Stop for the Heron pic. it was, in fact F20..( ! )
They are all very impressive pics from the Wide lenses.. Tempting me to go out and spend some more cash. !
I must say that DarenG’s first image of ” A fellow Photographer Buddy”, is really eye catching almost surreal.
Many thanks for the comments.. I can’t see the dust spot, but my glasses need replacing.. :} Thankfully I have had a sensor clean since this one last summer…
i think credit goes to Canon’s Stabaliser system, it certainly proved useful in these circumstances, caught without a tripod.
Being self critical I guess a slight crop taking some of the right of the image might have helped the bird being too dead central.. Not sure what others might think.
Again , thanks for looking.
Andy
