New lens pics

[DisneyFreak06]

I tried out my new Canon 70-200 L lens at the parade the other day. I love the lens! I'm not too happy with a lot of the pictures, but it's not the lenses fault, it's mine. We got there only about 20 minutes before the parade started and we didn't get a good spot. There are a lot of heads in some of my pictures!


This one is just a clown. Sorry to anyone with a phobia of clowns! I cropped this one a bit to take out the heads of the people in front of me. Other than that, I didn't do any editing. (I don't know how for starters! )

This one is of some of the RCMP Members in the Musical Ride. Again the only editing was cropping.

I have a Canon XT.

I think the pictures turn out really crisp. I really like the lens. I only wish I had a better spot. I'll be going to another parade (much smaller, no Musical Ride!) during Labor Day weekend, where I'll be able to get a much better spot-at my grandmothers! So hopefully I'll have a few more pictures to share.
