Wow! This is quite a creation. A very original image.
Shot with a Canon 20D and Lensbaby 2.0. FYI, there’s a Lensbaby 3G out now that’s a little more user friendly.

SLR Gear has a nice review of the Canon 70-200 f/4 L IS lens.
The EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM is a lightweight, compact L Series telephoto zoom lens with Image Stabilizer. The optical Image Stabilization in the new EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM lens provides up to an incredible four stops of shake correction – a first for Canon IS lenses. The use of fluorite UD lens elements provides excellent optical performance in terms of resolution and contrast. These features, together with its water-and dust-proof construction, provide both the performance and portability to meet user demands. Read more . . .

Here’s the latest and greatest from the long string of rumors dug up from the forums over at DPReview.com from someone who knows someone in the know:
I was today on a major event from a camera store (big one at VA region), and the Nikon representative that I know was there, also the Canon guy with a Mark III demo.
I teased my Nikon guy friend about the June 1st (Canon III date), and he told me that Nikon will have a BIG answer for that around fall, and will be BIG.
He was the one that gave me some tips around the D200 launch day.
Right, I know. Real solid stuff here. The post author does catch a little flack from the certainty of his prediction. Certain or not, its more for the rumor mill and that’s what we’ve got to deal with until Nikon makes an announcement.

Think you need to spend a serious chunk of change to get great wildlife shots? Think again.
This awesome shot was captured with a Canon S3 IS. It was captured at 1/250s and f/3.5. The focal length was 72mm, which transfers to the long end of the zoom ~420mm (a 6x multiplier).

It’s short and sweet this week.
Need a cheap macro studio? How’s $.02 sound and within arm’s reach? Check it out.
How many pics fit on your memory card (up to 8MP anyway)? Get it here.
If you’re like me and you love Lightroom, then you might want to take a peep at Lightroom Extra for some great LR resources. It looks to have some even more promising features in the near future. While we’re on the Lightroom topic, I think Inside Lightroom is my favorite find thus far. There a dozens of presets available for download along with easy install instructions.

Fantastic shot of the moon.
I was surprised to see that this was captured with a Fuji FinePix S5200 along with a Hokenn 114900 EQ telescope – f/8 @ 1/25s. Outstanding job!
