<p>Happy Thursday everyone! Sorry for the delay this morning. Been caught up in finals and almost forgot. I'm finally back on the laptop, so I can post a photo or two this week. This photo is from a few weeks ago in Hilton Head, but I haven't posted it yet, so here it is. I hope everyone is having a good December so far; it has been unseasonably warm here. Let's see those photos!</p><div></div>

<p>I'm continuing my experiments with my new EF 40mm f/2.8 and 5Dmk2. I thought I would try some close-up subjects. I'm getting the impression this is the best $150 I've ever spent on camera gear.</p>

<p>Great shots - especially like the baby shot, Dean: really fantastically well controlled light.</p>

<p>I am (I hope) recovering from tennis elbow at the moment, which restricts how much I can wave the 1Ds3 around. Here's another from my friends' band's video shoot. 1Ds3 with 85mm f1.8, ISO 640mm, 1/160s @ f2.5</p>

<p>This is a shot I sold recently. <br /> I've been working on a series of farrier shots as "art" and although I've sold a few, this was my first big sale along with one other. Rather than just plough the takings into general income, my wife and I will be having a weekend away in Florence or Rome.<br>
