    I wish i could've made it.... i knew i had too much work to do this weekend :(

    damn, i really should invest in better glass.... I'd love to see a few panning shots in hi-res!

    I have to admit, i dont feel too bad about not being there saturday, except the weather was nicer then a week ago wednesday.

    ^^^^^^^
    with this one.... i can't say i like it a lot, but it definately confuses me a bit... did you zoom out while panning? thats all i can make sence of with the directional vectors... or post processing.

    thanks Nathan :)

    ya that is what i did:) i got bored what can i say. i can send you some stuff in higher res if you could tell me what ones you would like to see. i like your 2nd photo alot, i have a photo sort of like it from a different event but it was not as sharp.

    i think i may have asked before but what camera/glass do you have? for some of the photos i used my old sigma lens because i wanted more reach (300 over the 200 in my nikon)

    well, when you feel you've gotten the shots you want, thats' when its time to expiriment ;)

    its that thought that leads me to wanting the EFS 100-400L

    but in all reality, my telephoto is totally useless over 200 mm. its a quantaray 100-300 that i bought just as i was beggining to get into photography... unfortunately, my funds have been diverted to other things besides that.

    I have a lot planned already for what i'll be getting... at least two pro-sumer hi-def cameras, a couple fly-cam stabilizers, a boom..... just on the hardware side for video, before things like proper mic's, and mountings...

    for the still cam stuff, well, the L lenses really do it for me, even if i dont have one yet.... hehe.

    i have to admit, im suprised your overhead pan was less sharp... VR is the god of maintaining sharpness so often... but well, even going slower then 1/60 might prove hard to do with VR/IS etc.

    on a positive note, the quantaray 100-300 does spectacular close ups with very clean bokeh... if only the focusing distance was less then 5-6 feet :p

    photos i love..

    the DoF is something i can't match on my lens..... very clean, very sharp

    this one also really cought my eye... the high saturation of the red agaisnt the grass, and the dust..... its very nice :)

    cheers
