:king: :thankyou:

Ya gotta like that lens Sieg!


Very crisp!

Yes Sir!! As close as I've ever had to a real lens. I hope the 18-135 is close because it's a LOT smaller and lighter! I packed the new one 1.5 hours this morning...........guess it could be considered exercise. :sieg:

This was at the St George Airport.

Awesome! It looks like a model being suspended by wires.

Wow nice pictures.

The man can build cars - kool parts AND shoot a camera shot!!

Nice Blake!!

NO!!! Anita did not take the picture lol
That was just after take off and a 180 bank back over the field at maybe 200 mph and 70 ft off the ground then he pulled up and banked right and rolled into it and was GONE.
Damn that is such a cool plane with such a cool sound!!

I was at the Palm Springs air museum when a B-17 and P-51 were there for a show. They did multiple passes on the deck, the B-17 slow and low (50-75') with the P-51 tight on top of it, then the P-51 did a low high speed fly bye that was flat out awe inspiring. The sound is something else, especially when paired with the beautiful fuselage styling. :thumbsup:

Wish I had a super zoom for this super moon

Pretty! Couple weekends ago when I was in Colorado, I was coming up I25 passing Ft Carson and I swear a C5 was taking off. It was huge and sloooooooow but man was it beautiful seeing it lift towards to sky.

This is a really cool picture

Definitely a cool shot, the clouds really make the photo. Look's as if it could have been shot with a GoPro.

That'a a 'Topshot' Sieg. :cool:

I've been slacking on getting recent pics into photobucket. Will post up some more when I have time. So many great photo opps here in Napa Valley.

Nice shot Jeff :thumbsup:

You're definitely in a target rich environment!

Excellent shot Jeff. :thumbsup:

'Wow' on the view and the colors in it.


Another shot off our deck; just used the iPad. I never get tired of looking at Lake Ontario shimmering from the sun. Pic doesn't do it justice of course.

Skip, if you have some polarized sun glasses, try taking that shot through the sunglass lens and see what happens.

I'm really liking the images my new Canon 18-135 STM lens is delivering!
For a cheap ($400) lens it's pretty sharp handheld.

Are you kidding me!?!?! That's tremendous!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^



You too Jeff. :cool:²

Thanks go to Ken Rockwell's review on this lens and you for recommending Ken's site to me. :thumbsup:

Washington State, rode the loop around the hood canal again yesterday, stopped by Lake Cushman and snapped a quick pick w/my handy dandy cheapo camera but you get the idea. It was 93* out and saw a lot of old cars and bikes also doing the loop. If your ever in the area, it's a can't miss ride.

Since the newspaper here posted this pic of the John C Stennis, thought I'd share. This is what I do to make ends meet.

Takes pictures of top-heavy barges? J/K What do you do!?
