Nice and cold this morning, (-5 F) perfect for those "Swans in the Mist" shots.

Taken with a Canon 5DMKII, Canon 300 f2.8 with a Canon 2X tc.

    Nice effects with the fog. I like the first two with the focus of attention on the white heads.

    The mist really creates that "mood" that is so appealing. I'm amazed at how well that 300mm F2.8 holds up with a 2x converter attached.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    So far, so good Chris.
    It has a few more menus that I have to learn how to set up to get the most of the camera, but it will come with time.

    Thanks for looking folks.
