 Hi all, this will be my first post here...nice to see so many familiar names here. This is one of the first shots I've got with the equipment I bought last week. Got myself a Canon EOS5 with a Canon EF 300/2.8L USM. This was shot near my house in Amsterdam while running a testfilm through my camera. Grey Herons are pretty shy down here in the Netherlands and I was very happy that this one stayed where it was so I could fire away some shots. Unfortunately I couldn't do anything about those bright patches in the background as I couldn't move to the left or right due to the vegetation. And in some way I think the two patches balance eachother. I'm impressed with the sharpness of this new lens, and I'm sure that I'll have a lot of fun with it in the future. Curious about your opinion. Canon EOS5 Canon EF300/2.8 + EF1.4 420mm/4.0 @ 1/? EV -0.5 to make sure that the patches wouldn't be blown out.

I do not necessarily mind "look away" shots, this one is sort of neat with the abstract background. If it had been dark all over, the bill would have been lost like Greg mentioned.
