Here's where I've been the last few days:
 Sand Dunes National Park in Colorado by David Stephens, on FlickrI borrowed the incredible EF 14mm f/2.8L II from Canon. It just blew me away, to have an ultra-wide rectilinear that was so undistorted. Look at those corners. You can stand 30-feet in front of a build, take the whole facade and the lines are straight. Simply incredible. I'm buying one when the budget allows.

Great shot Dave. I agree on the 14mm. I have this lens, but don't get many chances to take advantage of it. I will have it with me on my upcoming Yosemite trip next month however.

When the clouds are marginal or non-existent, then I'll crop 2:1 or 5:2 to create a single-shot pano and that works well.

This guy dove into the weeds not 20 feet in front of me and came back up with dinner. I actually had too much lens at the time as its hard to keep a fast bird in frame with 700mm when its that close.

To those that haven't experienced it, focusing 700mm when a bird is flying at you is very, very tough. It took me years to start getting them and I still miss a bunch. Congrats Ed. Dave
