Fantastic set this week!

Thank you so very much for picking my photo! Congratulations to everyone!

So, I went and tested both lenses today at a local camera shop. The extra 100mm was great, but the L was amazing. I got to test out the f/2.8L(non-IS) and was sad because it's soooo pricy but really really nice.

I bought the f/4 L because it just seems overall better quality than the non-L one. I'm a happy camper now lol!

Thank you so much for the feedback!

Yeah, I know I will be losing length when I switch to full frame. But I am only shooting sports for a short period of time, and trying to concentrate more on portraiture, and nature. I probably will buy the 2x extender when I switch so it adds to the focal length. I guess that's the added advantage of having a crop sensor compared to FF;I think it's what, 112-480mm for the 70-300mm on an APS-C body? . But, with the lens lineup I have now I want to switch due to what I am doing later on :D

I've considered some of the other L telephotos but they are so heavy in terms of price and weight lol. I would love the 70-200mm f/2.8 L but that is over my budget at the moment!!

Talking with a friend of mine he suggested I take my body to a shop and test them out or rent from borrowlenses. I think I'll go test them out and go from there.

TY both.

It is a lovely place here. I have never seen sunsets like this before in Texas so I try to keep my camera with me at all times!! :D

Lovely Photos everyone! It really is interesting to see where someone else lives, and what kinds of fascinating things could be photographed.

Thank you so much !!

Np! I saw it posted and thought you might want an update!! :D

Update: Mickey H. Osterreicher, general counsel for the National Press Photographers Association (NPPA), emailed Representative Bill Lippert of the House of Representatives to voice concern about the bill. Here’s what Lippert responded with:

The House Judiciary Committee, of which I am Chair, has no plans to take up this bill for consideration.

Thanks!

Alrighty guys and gals! I think we need to take a poll, or what not before April comes so we can start the challenge. I'm loving a lot of the ideas, and I would love to join, but I want to see what everyone else can come up with!

Thank you so much, Kimberly, for putting these up!

Sorry, I couldn't help but laugh. Especially about not finding me. I've gotten that a lot for some reason. :D

Spring would be broad in terms of what people could produce.Lots of pretty 'flowers' and 'plants'.

The easter egg would be a very interesting challenge! Especially with the variety of fractal programs out there.

Let's get some more ideas!
