Another in my "seen on the way to work" series. This one taken with my 40D, 70-200 2.8L + 2x at 385mm, ISO 400, f8 1/1000, no flash. I usually wouldn't take these static shots at ISO 400 or as fast, but I was set up like this in preparation for getting a flight shot. Comments welcome.

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round??

Stunning colour. Would have preferred the L/S format to see more of the concentric rings, but jmo. This works! Good shot.

The concentric circles, the color of the water, the great reflection all combine to make a truly superb shot! I don't think the higher speed hurt you at all, i don't see any of the grain I might normally expect. Well Done!

Alan, a stunning capture of this elegant Egret. Lovely movement of the super deep blue water. The reflection is a perfect mirror of this beauty. Also makes a beautiful desktop view : ^ >
