Shot this one today at the beach. The motion blurring was intentional, was practicing panning with the subject to achieve this look and surprisingly nailed it pretty quickly! [Smile]

Here's a couple shots from Saturday's target practice.. went to the park where the R/C junkies hang out, we have dedicated places for these guys to play.. R/C is tough to shoot, especially the cars and trucks.

Great pics Mike! Very well done....I really like the fast shutter speed captures...

Question: Did you take these with a digital slr? What kind of camera did you use? Traditional or digital?

Thanks Stef!

Todd, where you been man? [Smile] I used a canon 20D (8Megapixel dSLR) and a 100-400mm zoom lens.

Damn Mike, that camera takes some awesome shots! I have been reading about it since you mentioned it to someone looking for a digital camera. I hear in March the EOS 20D's little brother is coming out. My daughter has the digital Rebel, and she comes out with some very good pictures. So I did some researching on it and 20D sounds like one hell of a camera!

Alzheimers Mike!....I looked back at your earlier post and then remembered seeing that monster of yours! [Big Grin]

Nice camera, can I have it? P-l-e-a-s-e?

Really nice shots! I can't believe how nice digital cameras have gotten.

I went to BestBuy Saturday to buy some bigger hard drives. Stopped by the camera's and damn near bought the Canon with the stock lens. About $1500 as it sat there.

I exercised my best do no impulse buy talent and walked out the door without it.

Today I'm waiting to find out if I get the Hayabusa I've been patiently waiting to buy. Hopefully I'll be back in the saddle again by tomorrow!

Thanks guys.

Cisco, I love this camera. I've already snapped off 2,000 images with it. [Smile] They're all practice shots, most were deleted, just getting used to different settings and seeing what I can do.

Todd, NO. Sorry. [Smile]

Bob, just give me the money you're gonna spend on that 'busa. I have my sights locked on two more lenses I really.. uhh... "need". [Smile] It is an addiction though. Because I only have the one LONG lens right now, I'm really wanting a wide angle (10-22mm) for normal stuff, and a 100mm Macro for close-up jewelry shots and.... bugs.. like the black widows hangin out on my back patio.

Scott: workin on that actually. I'm thinking I might design some niiiice printed graphics, get a set out there and do my own photo shoot - promote the cooler graphics, digital printing and photography all in one shot.
