I couldn't help thinking of Stubbsy & ChristianD when this one came into my viewfinder...
I was down at Milson's Point experimenting with the 80-400VR and this came along...
Not for critique... Just sharing...

That first one is a great timed catch... I use the 80-400 too, find it a great lens, the VR's a saver for me as I have a lot of trouble holdign the bloody cam steady enough with any form of long zoom...
That last one looks oh so close  Aka Andrew
Nice ...
It brings back some fond memories. Thanks for sharing. Cheers Christian
the cloudy day washes out the colours, but the shot of the crew against the opera house skyline shows the power of this lens!
looking at the crew shot has probably cost me $1,800!!! thanks leek!
