Yikes. I'm surprised they're not surrounded by plexiglass.

I'd be willing to bet that nobody has a clue...including the congregation.

Well, my 13 year old had her first rock concert. Not to shibby for her first live go at this.

And all these years I thought she wasn't practicing.

Oh no, it's not mine, that'd be cracy.

Just got a chance to try some big lenses.

I believe they are protected from the outside, but not inside.

They are well aware. The church hosts Saturday morning "Breakfast with Tiffany's" once a month where they discuss the history of the church and windows.

Here's another shot of the church interior. It doesn't showcase the windows as much as some of the other shots.

yeah, but leave it to remmib to shoot a pic of his own car, as opposed to some hot european chick in the parking lot.

Nice shot, Trevor. Is that in some new development? Looks pretty desolate in the background except for that one McMansion up on he hill.

Activ · 06-26-2011, 07:24 PM

Thank you! And yes this area is under heavy development, the location where this was shot is actually still being built but when it is done it will offer great photography locations.
Here's another shot of the location, although I am not as stoked on this shot.

Okay, I only took a few pics with this lens, and this is the only girl and got a shot of.

And on another note, looks like a great sharp lens.

I also tried a few shots with the huge Sigma 200-500mm f/2,8 with 2xTC, making it 400-1000mm f/5.6, but those didn't turn out any nice.

Chewy734 · 06-27-2011, 05:05 PM

yeah, that is really sharp.

Hand held 500mm with 1.4x TC on my 7D:

ISO 800, f/8 and 1/2500th second.

Activ · 06-28-2011, 11:26 AM

TL & dC great shots! Kind of looks like you "clarity" is high on that shot though TL?

Edited/uploaded another...

Did a quick and dirty photo shoot with my car recently. I'm surprised I got any good shots at all, I forgot my tripod, and the wind was almost knocking me over. I think things tuned out well though. See the rest here

Activ · 06-28-2011, 12:00 PM

Nice shot! And you can really see how far the wind was pushing the trees wow.

You had tons of light, so why didn't you raise the shutter speed up to like 1/2000th? Be aware of the conditions, but also react.

Love the color and those wheels. I think that we may have the same wheels (APEX for me):

I love the contrast between sharp and OOF, speaking of TL's shot.
