Good start! I have an awesome lens for that camera if you're into macro stuff....

On another note, I almost got kicked out of the 'dome tonite because of my camera.....Ugly betty the security guard insisted my camera was professional and could not be used in the building. It was hard to tell with all the spitting from her braces. She actually used the "lens is longer than my hand" rule to justify it (which it wasn't). I came unglued, it was a hitmen game for crying out loud!? My Toshiba P&S has more zoom than the lens I was wearing, but that would be ok....Stupid rules.

Davan what settings and lens did you use to take those hockey pics?? i need to learn how to take sports pics and teach my sister so she can take some during my hockey games.

anyways last night had a small get together, few beers here and there so I took a shoot of one of the finest beverages.

Those were shot with the Canon EF 70-200, at f2.8, iso800. I was getting between 1/250th - 1/400th shutter speeds.

Lesson learned: makes sure you keep your sensor clean. If you enlarge it you can see a funny haze over the top of the closest arch, where the bar and chain is attached.

And I forgot my circ polarizer.

When you shoot snow, especially when the sun is out, you need to over expose to get right contrast and exposure. You light meter will read the incident ligth as being too bright (cause snow isn't grey).

Food for thought.
