MY PHOTOGRAPHY EQUIPMENT

As a landscape photographer, I have owned many different Canon lenses over the years, including numerous primes , including larger telephoto lenses.

Lately, I’ve circled back to what has always been my main three (16-35, 24-70, 70-200) for landscapes, replacing all primes I had in this focal range.

The 300 was added primarily for grand kids sports, though additionally sees action for wildlife and landscapes

Thought for the Day

and I do what I can do,

together, we can make a difference.”
