Rainy night

Journal Entry: Thu May 1, 2008, 8:46 PM
Its raining out tonight.. Love the sound on the window of my home office.
I've been have fun watching other photographers work these last few days.
Some really good talent on DA. Following the yellowstone shots of a couple
of outstanding photogs. Its a great wildlife treasure trove. Can't wait
to go back. For now I'll just keep shooting around home and processing some
shots from my trip.

Fantastic gallery. I'm really into birds, and it appears as though you may now be one of my favourite avian photographers :D Looking forward to seeing more great photos!

I no personal experience with that lens. I'm guessing its not as
good as the canon glass. You only pay for quality once.
*tourofnature:icontourofnature: Mar 5, 2008, 11:03:54 AM
Thank, I think I'm going to get the Sigma 80-400mm, its similar to the canon, but $400 bucks cheaper. Have you heard anything about Sigma glass?

I've been shooting it for 4 years. If you look thru my gallery, all but maybe the last 20 were shot with
the 100-400. You have to shoot at iso 400, but thats not a problem with the 5D. ISO 200 on a bright day.
*tourofnature:icontourofnature: Feb 27, 2008, 11:26:09 AM
I'm shooting the Canon 5D, so its got a full-frame sensor, I know that can affect the way the lenses perform. The one I'm leaning towards is the one you mentioned above, the Canon 100-400mm IS F5.6. My only concern with that one is it isn't wide open enough, that it won't perform well in low-light situations. Do you have experience with the 100-400mm f5.6?

Wow, what a wonderful surprise!!! Glad you like it.
Love you back! :D :D :D
*DGAnder:iconDGAnder: Feb 26, 2008, 9:57:14 PM
Yep, I have lots of advice.
What system are you shooting? If canon, the cheapest quality lens is the 400 f5.6, sharp but no IS, the 100-400 IS L F5.6 is a little more spendy and very versitile. I have one and its served me very well. A friend has a tamron 200-500 and does very will with it, but he's switching to canon glass as soon as possible. Bottom line get the best glass you can afford.
*tourofnature:icontourofnature: Feb 24, 2008, 12:23:56 PM
Hey Don,

I'm looking into getting a new telephoto lens specifically for shooting wildlife, it seems like you've got a monster lens and your shots look great, do you have any recommendations or advice on brands, shooting speed, or focal length?

Thanks

What a great gallery and site you have here, brother dearest! Your photos are breathtaking! I have really enjoyed brousing thru all of them.

I have not checked the whole site out, but I will.......you really have found your nitch in life.

I am still quite disappointed that I was born without any talent and had to settle for looks instead. I am just honored to be related to 'The Artist'

Don - I am proud of you!! You are leaving a very lovely, gentle footprint on the world....

Love ya!!
