Could've bought a car . . .

But instead bought a lens to start upping my wildlife photography game :-)

Canon 500mm F4 IS L USM, with 1.4x TC Mk II mounted on a Canon 7D all on my Half Gimbal. - Super Dwarf Platinum Reticulated Python on top :banana:

Just arrived via fed ex today and had to share!

Red-shouldered Hawk was one of the first birds I had the chance to photograph with it this evening as the sun went down.

And the moon since everyone who has a big lens must photograph the moon right?

Also got in some new soft boxes for my flashes. So we will see how the herp photography does with it.

Cheers!

I am super jealous right now. That is so awesome...and the pics are beautiful!

Been literally YEARS in the making to get this lens. I'm actually quite terrified to use it!!
