I had a chance to visit the Olympic park in Beijing at night so I grabbed my tripod and got a taxi to see it. I was quite amazed at this building so wanted to share. Cheers Ben

On a recent trip to China I got the chance to visit part of the wall I had not been to before Mutianyu. This is a great part of the wall to visit as there isn't as many tourists. Im going back next week so would like some advice on my trip back. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6...

I have nothing as awesome as you guys but here is a quick snap of my Corn snake. I have had this guy 9 years now and im only 23 now.

Here you go this is just after the full tilt. Not a brilliant photograph but you get the idea.

Ah yeah there is. It gets some huge angle looks like its going to roll.

yeah it was at Waddington. The display was fine. There isnt much you can do with such a big aircraft but they seam to do a good job of it. fly by's with bomb doors open, air breaking and with wheels down and things. Was quite good.

thats what i normally do. Just wondered what people did

Some snaps I got of the Vulcan today. Hope you like.

I think its going to be quite sunny tomorrow and I am unsure what metering mode to use to photograph the planes at waddington airshow. (planes are not normally my thing) I use a 60D and will have a 70-200 F2.8 with me. What you guys recommend ?

I have a canon 60d with grip. When I use a big lens e.g 100-400mmL. The camera strap becomes very annoying . Has anyone used other straps ? I see camlink do a few ,what have people used ?

Does the end of this lens turn ? or is it internal focusing ?

Thats a good thing then. I have used a 100-400L a lot and not bothered about it not been "fast". I am a media photographer for the british drift championship. Stuff like this...

Thanks for the info. I mostly shoot cars and drifting, I have used a 100-400 A few times and loved it but the 70-300L might tick all the boxes. See if I can find one.

Has anyone on here got a EF 70-300mm F4-5.6 L IS USM ? What do they think of it ? how would you rate it ?

Thanks alot for the info
