Are pointing dog trials considered a sport? Two Britt's casting off in an all age brace. Great picture.

Great shots! The Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM is on my radar for next acquisition, great lens.

The photos in the thread show acumen in managing exposure but, the framing and DoF management are areas that could take the shooter to the next level. In the industry the question is "what's the most important part of the photo?" Its the background. Clean up the background through angles or DoF , pay attention to the story telling, two persons and a ball.

Rented a Canon 70-200L IS f4 for today's meet. Just wanted to try it out as I have always read really good review about how sharp it is and this meet allows for spectators to be pretty close, so 200 mm is plenty. I shot the last meet at this course with a 18-135 USM

So, after shooting the meet with the 70-200L f4, I am not sure that I can tell much difference between that and my own 70-300 USM II. Now, in my hands, it may certainly be user limited. I will say that the 70-200 is a great lens to use. Fast focus, nice weight and balance. All internal focusing. I plan to review the photos some more, side by side. The constant f4 was nice as late afternoon approached, did not need to crank the ISO to maintain a fast shutter speed

A few random thoughts. The most important part of a sports pic? The background. "two faces and a ball" , story telling. The last cross country pic is the best of the bunch.
