    Beautiful John! Still trying to restrain myself from the 1DX but these types of images make it tough...well done.

    +5 That's pretty good going getting that close John. Gee those 1Dx files are nice, that's not a bad body+lens combo right there.

    Stop it, stop it right now! I'm spinning up my justification speech to the better half right now. Maybe she'll buy me one for a wedding present, only a week and a half away... hmmm. Doubt it VERY much.

    Congrats on your impending nuptials!!!

    How about this..."Honey, instead of spending thousands on that wedding photographer, let's just buy me a 1D X. I'll shoot our wedding. Don't worry, it won't distract me from our vows or anything like that..."

    Yes congrats Ben

    As always Neuro offers excellent advice. +1 on this. I know good marital advice when I see it, after all I have been married three times .

    Thanks John, highly exciting.

    Unfortunately though our wedding photographer's fees would only cover half the cost of a 1Dx. So for it to work out I'd have to take the photos then sell the clients a bunch of prints. The client being the soon to be wife. In which case there's every chance I'll be paying for the prints too. I don't think this will work... yet.
