    Great shot once again Nate. Hey BTW, are you going to upgrade yourcamera body? I wouldimagine the 7D would be the obvious choice.


    Here isanother one.

    Hey John,


    Nice image of the geese, I like the colors and the low anglebecause it gives you the oof bg and fg. I would crop out the dark part on top of the frame.


    Regarding camera upgrade,I've been so tempted to upgrade to the 7D since its introduction. The reason that kept me from getting it was I wanted to read all the reviews, now that I've read all the reaviews, Ijust want to wait for a price drop[]. Based on all the reviews, I think the 7D is an excellent piece of equipment and it's going to be a big upgrade to my 40D. However, a better and newly introducedcamera does not make the existing camera work any differently, so I'm just holding on to my 40D for now.

    Yeah, I thought about that but I like the way it is framed as it is. I have a few pictures that need to have some editing done to them.


    The backround on this is nice.

    Went out with the boys to see ice fishing on a pond near by and happened to see a couple of Jays looking for nest material. Happened to have the camera handy and caught this picture. Taken with XTi, 70-200 f4 L IS with Kenko 1.4x extender at f5.6, 280mm. Cropped pretty heavily, I believe ISO 400.
