The first 3 photos were shot with the magnificent 70-200 IS Canon with the 1,4 II multiplier. Uff. It's heavy !!
The baker was shot with the 16-35mm 2.8 L USM Canon

Can you say POP? That first one with the colors really got me....I like them all. Very sweet...is your 70-200 an f/4 or f/2.8? I've got to get one of those and I see a few for sale (f/4's). Nice job Antonio.....

Swartzy,
How do you do ?
The IS version of the 70 200 mm is f 2.8
It's the only one - as far as I know - with IS and f 2.8
All the others are f 4, thought I read here, Canon is going to lauch the f 4 IS because the f 2.8 is very expensive. (and heavy, and sharp, and good).
Thank you for the comment.

OK, The first shot is spot on. Great colour, contrast and the background offests the man very well.

As for others... Hmm, let's put it this way - this post should have finished on the first one ;-)

Some really good photographs posted recently by you. It looks like you need to slow down a bit when taking these photos and instantly you have excellent results. Keep them coming!

Do you mean I should be more carefull when I shoot ?
Photograph with more care, more attention, looking for better results in a minimum of photos ?

Not so much careful but give yourself a bit more time for composition.
I do this all the time too - spot something and shoot and than I wish I took a bit more attention to what was in the viewfinder and where.

I absolutely agree with you.
Slow down, you move too fast ...
(where have I heard this before ? )
