    Canon 300 f4 L Vs 70-200 2.8 II & TC

    With local road racing your able to get very close, at places bikes are passing with 3 feet or less of your toes at 180mph+, rallying on the roads is more or less the same. I would be over at Knockhill a couple of times throughout the year as well as local tracks.

    Titanica, Belfast

    Shot from today of the statue at the front of the Titanic memorial museum in Belfast. The outside of the building is made up of silver triangulated pieces, I thought they made an interesting background. The statue itself is by Rowan Gillespie and called 'Titanica'. Any comments appreciated.

    new walk around lens help?

    Tamron 17-50 is a great lens, the fact it's so well priced is the icing on the cake. I bought the VC version first even after reading various reviews saying it was the inferior using the mindset 'well in the real world it can't be that much different'. Man was I wrong, the non VC version (in...
