I figured I'd throw in a couple for the giggles before the deadline.

This one was shot on my old XTi, with a Nikkor 50/1.4. I tried to shoot Dolly as often as possible, but she would always come over to me when she saw me looking at her with the camera - I think she was camera shy. Any photos I've got of her were surprise shots, or with a telephoto. I've always cherished this shot as I caught her looking wistfully out a big window as she sat on our staircase. She was on the move as soon as I got this. February 2012.

This shot I took while vacationing on Morro Bay on my old XTi again, with an absolutely awful lens, a Sigma 70-300/4-5.6 DG. But, a great location, magical lighting and I have a folder full of images I still love. Between this and my old Sigma 10-20/4-5.6 I got a lot of goodies. September 2011.

I didn't notice that "Landscape" could include flowers - guess I should pay attention to your generous parameters!
I've been having a blast with my 100L Macro - wish I could have more time with it.

There's no way you can appreciate this without the full sized image. It's my first attempt at a panoramic shot. I had been shooting with my 24-70 on a breathtakingly clear day, and suddenly thought I should try to get the entire thing in. So I waited for as clear a day as I could get before the blossoms fell off (it suddenly turned to winter again), and went out with my Sigma 70-200 f2.8 OS [edit] I just checked and this series was my 100L - not the Sigma! and then used the stitch filter in Photoshop. I was really surprised it worked so well. The detail is nuts, you can see the blossoms just fine! This is from 20 images (portrait), 6D, f11, ISO 100, 1/160.
