Nice deep colours and pin sharp :thumbs:

Where did you get yours from Dave? How are you finding the weight?

Hi Andy,

Thanks :)

I got mine from Warehouse Express, ordered it Wednesday night, it was delivered Friday, great service :thumbs:

I can see the weight of it being an issue if you were shooting for a long period, I hand-held for the above shots but may try and use the monopod next time.

Regards

Dave

Sharp and sweet, although the light hasn't done you any favours.

Pick my 120-300 up on thursday, looks as though I'll need to do some weight training in the meantime :)

I had a look at these shots, and saw the lens used, and thought, "Wow, these are really sharp shots! I wonder how much the 120-300 costs..."
then saw the price tag, and thought, "No bloody wonder!"

Excellent shots :)
