Todays walk with my new 70-200mm 2.8 IS (cheers Kerso!)

[admirable]

Picked up my new lens yesterday and went out for a walk this morning. Not the brightest of weather for a photowalk but I'm very chuffed.

The robin was well into the bushes as you can see and the autofocus picked it out very quickly no probs.

The swans were possibly too close for this lens but still impressed. I'm still very new at this but would welcome any opinions.
