A Canon 6D with mostly a 24-105 L or a 17-40 L lens. The tanker shot is with the new sigma 100-400, brilliant piece of glass.

Great kit,
I have the 6D as well with the 24-105 L F4 lens.
I also have the Canon 100-400 L series IS11 lens.
I have recently considered selling the 100-400

as I am finding it a bit heavy for me due to my physical condition, I am finding it difficult to hold it steady, ( Old age as well ) LOL

The sigma 100-400 is lighter than the Canon L version, it's image Q is as good but the AF tracking isn't particularly good so I wouldn't use it for sport or action photography! 

[stever750]

Top is with the 24-105, bottom with the sigma.

Great shots again Steve. I’m toying with idea of getting the 28 - 300 L series lens as an all purpose lens and using it with my 760d. In time I wouldn’t mind a 5d, have to save a few pennies first though.

A couple of my favourite from a local car show today, left camera in program mode, -1f-stop and manual focus..

A couple more worthy of posting (imo lol) the pink focus, previously posted is probably my favourite shot from the day. I quite like the TAG B&W shot as well

Too much Bull here.

 

Found in my garden in France. The grass wasn't the only thing he happily chewed on!

 

This was some storm!

 

I'll never tire of the view

bow control?

I host all my photos on Smugmug - been using them for years. It's a paid-for service, but the level of control and customisation is worth it for me. You can try them for free - they also recently acquired Flickr.

I do have a referral code you can use which gives you a 20% discount: https://secure.smugmug.com/signup?Coupon=yidWUD5WtmAOk

Any questions, just ask

My bad...ytpwo

 

bw was what I meant

 

will check out that site....I lost loads when one site I was using disappeared 

land thanks for the link

 

cheers

geof

 

[Xavier]

ytpwo ? Or is that a typo ?

bw as in black and white conversion? It's amazing how playing with the colour gains produces different B&W results you wouldn't initially have thought

 

[mrcrow]

Are you meaning lightroom or similar...or other?

 

Perhaps when I look at smugmug things may be clearer

 

Cheers
