Hi everyone! I know these topics have been done to death, but I was just wondering if anyone could recommend a good agility club in the Newcastle area?? I have one aussie who is trialing level, but a younger girl who hasn't really done much (except the basics that i'm teaching at home :) ). Thanks in advance for your help!! Beth

What lens have you used for these pics CC?? :)

:laugh: this little face cracked me up!! What a cutie!! :D

Gorgeous, gorgeous photos!! (and gorgeous subjects as well!! :D )

Thank you everyone!! I can't wait to actually sit down and have a proper play with it - these were all just point and shoot and hope for the best! And yep, it's nice to have such a good looking, willing model on hand :p (And excuse poor Lotties long toenails, as was pointed out in another thread with nothing else said about the pics, I promise they were done only 2wks ago, but they've now been redone :laugh: )

Thanks MnDM!! I'm LOVING this lens, but because i'm in the middle of exams, i'm making myself not go out and take lots of photos, but I've taken a few (mainly of Lottie :p ) So - here are a few of my first pics with it - did I say I LOVE this lens :D My gorgeous girl, Lottie... And again..... And again :p (my little hippo...) And just some bird ones (which are all cropped - just can't get over the quality of this lens!!)

He is stunning Congrats on your gorgeous new edition (sorry - i'm a bit late :laugh: )

Yep you can!! :laugh: Thank you, I need it - I think the buying of the lens was the best procrastination i've done in 6 years :p

Thanks Snook - i'm soooo excited, and because my nifty fifty has been broken for quite some time (focusing issues - all my pics are blurry), I really haven't taken many photos at all lately!! And I have to get through 6 exams first, so fingers crossed, haha!!

Yep - I'm very excited, that's for sure!! And yep Kirislin - it'll be a massive step up, but I was looking at other lenses for around the $400 mark, then I thought, for a little extra i'd like to get an L lens, and then this one popped up and it sounded perfect - oh, and it's in the mail as we speak :D And I will indeed - 3 weeks and i'm finished uni FOREVER and i'll be a vet :D wahooooo - so after 3 wks i'll be out there really getting back into it!!

Thank you everyone!! Looks like i'm the proud new owner of it - it was a gift in March to the seller (comes with all paperwork etc), and is practically brand new, so I think it's a nice step up from my broken nifty fifty - can't wait to be back out there taking photos, i'm so very very excited :D

Hi everyone!! Long time no post for me, but I always keep up to date with everyone's gorgeous photos!! I thought I would ask for people's opinions.... I've been offered a very good quality 70-200mm f4 L no IS lens for $500.... With good, filters, bag etc. I just want people's opinions on the lens and that deal etc!! The main photos I take are just of Lottie/dogs :) what do people think of the non IS version?? Thanks everyone!!! :D

Pretty sure they're all at my place, Newfsie!! :laugh: Loving all these pics everyone!! I've got some sad news, i'm pulling out of the 365 day project - I didn't even make 2 months this year :laugh: I just don't have the time with my last year of uni, and i'm also not enjoying any of the pics i'm taking so i'm giving up!! I will keep popping in though to look at all your wonderful photos - keep up the good work everyone :D

I've been so slack with the editing - I'll get around to it, but I have a feeling i'm not going to make it this year again, with my last year at uni and out on rotations, I think it's going to be a bit crazy :laugh: Loving all these pics :D :thumbsup:

Loving all these pics!! What a talented bunch I'm a bit behind in posting, so here are a few.... I've been a bit slack the last few days.... Sorry!! Feb 3: It's a hard life for some....
