Wasn't even aiming for that one.
There was a couple fighting over a fish just to the left of it (where the water splashes came from)
but when I zoomed in on this one I though it looked cool

This announcement has me really excited:
"Tamron has announced the new SP 150-600mm f/5-6.3 Di (VC) USD lens. With mounts for Nikon, Canon, and Sony A DSLRs, this full-frame and APS-C-compatible lens brings together fine optics, comfortable handling, and built-in Vibration Compensation (on Nikon and Canon) to provide a powerful reach that will still produce clear images, even when handheld."

Obviously there is some compromise on speed however on my 1D this will have a reach of 780mm which will be awesome for shooting things like the TAC Cup.
It is expected that the price point will be about $1500-2000. So it needs to be at least as good as the Canon 100-400L for that price. The alternative is getting a Sigma 120-300mm, however, this should have much better native IQ at 600mm than the 120-300mm with a 2x tele.

Some pretty cool pics in here.

IN Reply to the USA TIPS AND TRICKS THREAD, I thought id also post some random pics that I took along the way. not all of these are my best ones but I hope they are liked and appreciated none the less. Again, totally random selection of the file I took. 9000+ photos on the digital cameras and 4000+ on the iphone, mainly just happy snaps of random things along the way. Enjoy
Early morning in Luang Prabang, Laos
I should have taken more shot of monks because the orange stands out so well

I got a Cannon 1100D for my birthday a couple of months ago so Im pretty new to this hobby. Most of these pics have been taken around the town I live in the last couple of months.
They're awesome! Love the first one that popped up which is like a dark street.
I'm a newbie too, I'll have to chuck some of mine up.

Thanks. Want to get a bigger lense but cant afford it right now
You're doing well with the gear you have!
Thanks for the encouragement. I have plenty of nice scenery to take too.
You certainly do! Where are you?
Wish I could brave going outside tonight. Got the best lightning storm here in Ballarat at the moment. Best I've ever seen. Jeez they're close though, little bit scared. I don't think I have my tripod here either.

Sth of France.
I don't think I've ever posted any work on here?
I'm pretty much exclusively a portrait photographer. Don't really like photographing anything I can't talk to. These were from a session earlier this week.

I really like that last one zeke
I'm very much an amateur photographer with an expensive habit.
Currently shooting with:
Sony A57 dSLR (or SLT if you want to get technical)
I love it... 16MP is plenty detail for what I'm shooting, and the 12 fps shooting comes in handy for sports. It's nuts. I also really like the EVF, especially as it was my first DSLR. It really helped me learn the ropes about shutter speed, ISO, f stops, and manual modes. Highly recommended.
Glass:
Kit Sony 18-55mm SAM
Sony 55-200mm SAM zoom
50mm f/1.8 "nifty fifty" (a must must must considering they cost no more than $150. I got mine for under $100 online)
Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 (it is wiiiiiiiiiiiide and fast, just gorgeous
I also have a Manfrotto tripod and some UV filters on the lenses. Worthy investments. I find the kit lens to be an absolute ripper, highly undervalued along with the fast fifty. My zoom lens is due for an upgrade... perhaps looking for a 400mm one, perhaps the Sony G, looks sharp. Otherwise maybe the Sigma 150-500mm.
