I hardly used the big camera on my trip – somehow walking around with 20 lbs of equipment in the caribbean didn’t seem as much of a groovy idea as it normally does. I think it’s because I was in tourist town, so there wasn’t much chance of wildlife. However I did manage a few shots that I was really proud of, and here they are!

I came back to a real storm at the office so postings have been thin and few, for which I apologize. I’ve got great things that I can post about soon though, including a new knitting pattern and jewellery made from hyacinth petals :)

    Loved them, thanks Shireen. What equipment did you use for these?

    Hey Gary – thanks! These were taken with a Canon 7D – but the sharp focus on the birds was achieved using a 100mm f2.8 prime lens. The sharpness of that lens is incredible!

    You were close enough to use a 100? Wish I had been there. And yes, I loved the sharpness, the colour, etc etc. (drooling for new lens now). :) Canon Lens? Or maybe Tokina? Can’t wait for the next set of pictures, whatever the subject may be.
