600mm lens

Valentines Day fun

Other girls may have gotten candy and flowers for Valentine's Day.
But I got a day out with my hubby - doing what I wanted to do.

The very "risky" Zeiss tripod and ball head was used for only a few days until I got my more substantial Gitzo tripod and Wimberley head. The lens weighs close to 12 pound lens alone. Although I had no problem while briefly using the above set up, my advise still would be don't "don't try this"; use a proper tripod.

Might be tough for me to carry one of those around
and do street portraiture.

A day out with a 6honey sounds like fun to me, wouldn't matter if my wife was with me or not.
