Nice work mate :thumbup: What sort of shooting gear do you have ??

Thanks! Have a Canon T3i (600D) with a 18-55 and a 55-250. Both of those were shot with the 55-250 lens. So far I love the camera. Taking it this weekend on a fall color ride and around a scenic lake, so hopefully getting some good pics!

Also, congrats on the new purchase!! If you feel the need to part with any of your other lenses, I'll take them off your hands :rolleyes:

I have the same camera/kit. LOVE it, but still learning all the bells and whistles.

I'm jealous, Humpy. My favorite lens is a Tamron 17-50mm I picked up earlier this year. Though not professional grade it does a great job. Used it at the Barber Motorsports Museum a few months back. Fast lenses are cool, no flash indoors mean really interesting lighting and such. I'd like to get a good zoom like that for my Sony some day. I have a Tamrom 28-250 also and it works good (not great). Of course the lenses you can get for Canon/Nikon are top quality.

Was an absolutely gorgeous day for a fall color ride! There were so many times I wanted to stop for photos, but that would have taken all weekend.

Full album is here. A few of my favs...

The girlfriend wanted pictures of her and the kids, so down to the park and river we went.

It was quite fun, trying out new techniques, getting the focus right, catching particular moments. etc. Just gotta keep practicing!

Thanks! We are in a severe drought, so what is usually a river, are now streams/creeks. And almost all of the usual streams/creeks are dried up. It's a good time to see what is usually covered up by water.

Not any of my most artistic photo's but a day at the zoo with our 3 year old grand daughter was fantastic and exhausting.
And just to prove I'm not the hooligan you all think I am...
