Afternoon at LHR (19-04-09)

An afternoon at LHR today to test out the new lense (Canon EF 100-400mm f4.5/5.6L USM).

Quite a good afternoon in terms of traffic… shots here a mix from the new lense and the sigma 50-500mm too.

Enjoy!

As you can see the weather sadly didn’t last all afternoon. 😡

And the highlight of the afternoon – I would guess that this aircraft is currently subbing for one of their 777’s that was impounded at CDG.

Superb shots, Andrew! Looks like the new lens has worked a treat. 😉
