The eagles are still around here.

I'll be taking snow shots this weekend. We're expecting up to 18".

Superb shot, Dave. Pin sharp in the eye and excellent framing.

Here's a hand held moon shot that worked out really nicely. Usually, when the moon is so low to the horizon that its orange, your shots will not be sharp because of smog, moisture, etc. in the atmosphere. For this shot, a front had just gone through and blew out all the bad stuff and I got a good, clean shot at a low moon.

This is hand held with my new 5D MkIII and 700mm of lens:

Agreed. Great shot, DC.

dcstep · 02-22-2015, 12:55 PM

Thanks guys.

That was an amazing moment. I'd stood around for a couple of hours, with nothing happening, then an eagle flew right over me:

and then I, literally, turned around to see the coyote.

Thank you Garen.

My new EF 500mm f/4L IS II keeps blowing me away. It's only supposed to be a teeny, tiny bit sharper than my old Series I, but I keep noticing that the images are really, really sharp. That shot was at 1/2000-sec., so the improved IS shouldn't be the factor. Both had accurate focus, so I'm at a loss to explain my recent IQ improvement, other than it must be that the new lens is even sharper. Can't put it down...
