Hahahahahahaha, good call... Sceptical about the glowing moth though, as i know its hard to jusge distance in such image but i feel its too high to be such a small insect...

Nope, its definitely a light trial if you zoom in, i took same photo 30 seconds before and nothing there...!

Good Thread, i always kept the below shot to myself incase the illuminate (or whatever there called) came after me... So the situation was, i was shooting long exposures of Big Ben and didnt realise the light trial untill i got home, i mean i have seen light trials before but not in this...

So out of the two canon 100-400 or Sigma 150-500 you would go with the sigma? By the way great photo.

Canon 550D, yes 100-400 sounds good...

Im happy renting as i have used a company lots before, will the 250mm be close enough is my question? I was thinking in the 400mm prime range?

I have the opportunity to try my first airshow shoot in a few weeks and my longest lens currently is 70mm.! So im looking at renting one in, any advice on lens as i have never shot planes before? Thanks in Advance

I had the same set up (friend asking for a favour)..! I hired in the 70-200 is usm 2.8 (lenspimp 3 day hire £50 and amazing company), and had my standard lenses as well, my other idea was to ask a friend to come along with her Dslr and have a shoot, at least if mine went tits up i had...

Having bought a 2007 Canon ipf6100 I'm having difficulties connecting it to my Apple Macbook air. It uses 'Apple Talk' to connect to computer via USB, i cannot find the option to turn it on in 'preferences' on my macbook air? Help before i smash it all up...:bang::bang::bang:

I broke my camera, but i do have an iPhone? See if that works.

It prints A1 so 24 inch, yes i get about the canvas wrap so will drop to about 20inch width but unlimited length (well to a degree)! Long panoramic! but if i print on to Photo paper roll i could do the whole 24 inch.. well i have bought it now so we shall see how it goes.

excellent advice, i treat myself today...

So after investing in my Canon IPF 6100 I'm after some decent quality photo paper on role. I would use it for large photos displayed behind glass. Your advice is welcomed
