Testing a Canon Super telephoto loaner lens on Eagles and Birds

I had fun recently. I am a member of Canon’s CPS program- Canon Professional Service.
This entitles me to try almost anything Canon makes for 10 days.
So, I thought I’d try the EF 200-400mm f/4L IS USM Extender 1.4x.

The lens is a beast. It is very sharp but that comes with some negatives- size and price.

Weighs almost 8 lbs and cost $10,000 For more info on lens:

Mangroves at Matheson Hammock Park

This is a sunrise image taken at Matheson Hammock Park just outside Miami, FL. near Coral Gables. This is a mangrove tree forest.

The water was at low tide. It was about 6-8″ high. It has a great mirror effect. There was NOTHING added to this image. No Photoshop, just nature and it’s beauty.

Sleeping Tiger

Something to get over the hump this week. A little nap.

What do tigers dream about? Corn flakes? What do you think?

This is the AAA, American Airlines Arena in Downtown Miami, FL. Taken after a NBA Heat game.

HDR Car Sunrise

I took this at sunrise from the bottom of a small hill. I like the colors.

Burn Notice

Those of you who watch USA Networks’ Burn Notice will remember this site from the opening credits. Shot in downtown Miami, FL.

HDR Sunrise on Miami Beach

This is a HDR image taken at sunrise on Miami Beach, FL.

I like the way the splash shows up.

HDR Waterlilly

This is one of my favorite images. The waterlilly from the Reflection pond at the Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden in Miami, FL.

A little HDR effect was added to bring out the detail.

HDR Old Truck

While traveling in the SouthWest, I found this old truck in a small field. It was just begging to be photographed and then being turned into a HDR image.

It got its wish. This is one of my first, and favorite, HDR shots.

Leave me your feedback and comments. And those who really like this image, prints are available at FineArtAmerica, http://fineartamerica.com/featured/hdr-old-truck-joe-myeress.html

HDR TigerDirect storefront

Sometimes you use HDR a little to bring out details. And sometimes you can push it too much to make the image surreal. I tried to really push it on this image. I wanted a “bigger than real” look.
What do you think?
