    A tragic reminder to us amateur photographers

    Saw higher res versions of those same shots and the guy had a six pack of Budwiser (beer) in that white plastic bag.

    A humorous story.

    There was this little boy about 12 years old walking down the sidewalk dragging a flattened frog on a string behind him. He came up to the doorstep of a house of ill repute and knocked on the door. When the Madam answered it, she saw the little boy and asked what he wanted. He said, "I want...

    Ain't pretty, but it was a score. Or did he kick the thing into his own goal? Funny anyway.

    Bladerunner DVD due soon!

    How many think Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford's character) was a replicant and Gaff (James Edward Olmos) was the true "Bladerunner"? In the beginning of the movie they say six replicants escaped but only show five. One got fried before the story actually starts so that would leave Roy, Priss...

    If you could only have one lens.....

    Since I am primarily a wild life (bird) photographer I will have to go with the 500mm f/4.0. However, I would loath to give up my 85mm f/1.2L. My first "real" camera was a 7 series Canon rangefinder with a 50mm f/1.4 lens. (camera was manual everything) Basic stuff. You really can't go wrong...

    Which lens? Cannot decide.....opinions welcome!

    For what it's worth, I would most likely go for the 24-70. I would not like to give up the extra stop, 24-105 is a little to much "zoom" at > 4 to 1 and why would you want IS at that focal length. At 1/24 you should be on a tripod. There is the 16-35 f/2.8L at US$1350 if you want wider...
