How do you sneak up on a big bird?

I'm glad you weren't in his rear area. "Look out below"!! "PLOP". LOL. And I know you don't use a UV filter. Bret, you have definitely outgrown your fabulous 20D. I wish I could master my photographic talents such as you. Helen |

You definitely have mastered your skills with the 20D and wildlife. Good thing you weren't below him. Your lens might have had a special delivery from the heron. And I know you don't use a UV filter. Lovely shot! Helen |

Besides, with the L series lenses, why cover up what you paid big bucks for. Helen |

Helen People that use L glass with UV filters probably have their couches covered in clear plastic. laugh I do have filters on my large front lenses (72mm) as scratch avoidance but they are the high quality Minolta or B+W UV filters. On my 300 f/2.8 it is a 114mm piece of flat, neutral optical glass. My 100 mm f/2.8 has never had a filter on it (other than for effects), the front element is so deep (unless shooting macro) from the threads as to be immune to all but the most determined attack.
