I used my wife's Canon 60D with an EF 70-200mm zoom lens @ 200mm. I took the shot thru the sliding glass door. It may have been sharper if not for the glass door. Camera was on a tripod, not hand held.

Was it an f/2.8 or the f/4? Just curious as I've had both and sold the f/2.8 because it was just too heavy, but was a beast of a lens, especially the II. I now just own the f/4 which is a fantastic lens and saves a little on the weight too. I actually prefer it these days. A great image nonetheless, especially thru the glass doors!

That cardinal photograph is fantastic! He almost appears to be smiling ever so slightly as the wind and snow blow around him. A beautiful bird and a beautiful shot.

It is the f/2.8.

I was in Lisbon for work this past week and had a free morning, stumbled onto this LGS. They were asking 1000 euros for a P232! Very small shop, 4 or 5 people would have stepping on each other it was so small. Sorry for the crappy iPhone pics.
Member Widge sent me some of his favorite tea. I took some pictures for the book of faces of the process of brewing up a cup. I liked the way this one turned out.

^^^^^^^^^ So his favorite is Delta Elite?
Too bad it's not in a "Gold Cup"
(I took a new picture of it today but but Photobucket was freaking out & wouldn't upload it)
If you really want something you'll find a way ... ... if you don't you'll find an excuse.
I'm really not a "kid" anymore ... but I haven't grown up yet either
