It's been a really long time since I have taken some pictures, so I fired my canon 10D today after putting on my new wing and took a couple of quick shots.Â* You can even see some of the popcorn material still stuck on the wing!
Before you say the shot sux. I want to let you know what I was doing. I only wanted the APR logo focused and the rest of the dept of field to not be. But I was working in a tight space, so this is what I came up with. Oh well, enjoy, or not.

UCB, damn your good!

I actually focus'd on the wrong part of the wing, but I liked the image. I also think dropping the resolution might of contributed to it also.

Good eye anyway.

Is that the main lens you use? Or do you have others?

I have 1 more L lens. 70-200mm 2.8 to complement the 24-70.
So yea the 24-70 is my main lens. 70-200 is meant for shooting sports, moving shots, and close ups when people are far.

Not when it just came out. Hence the 10D, that will tell how long I have had it.
