My camera came with a 75-300mm zoom lens. I never use it as it is not stabilized but decided to give it a go to try and get some detail in the permanent snow near the top of the mountains. I am quite pleased with the result - this is about 10,000 feet up.
Comments always welcome.

You done a good job..IS Isn't required when shooting at high speed..Rule of thumb is 1.5 times the focal length..So at 300mm you are looking to be shooting at 1/450th sec,50mm 1/150th sec etc:.....R.

Excellent results Lyn - very dramatic and something I'll likely never see except in your shots.

Great picture. I love the versatility of zoom lenses, even if it's a pain sometimes to stabilize them.

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.
