MAN 04/02/2007 – Nice Weather!

Hello all!

Well I finally got my ‘Bigma’ back this week so took it down to MAN to see if it would still do the business. I had lots of fun with it 😀 And whent mostly for close-ups etc. I met up with James Rowson and Jason Nicholls and later Sam Hampson at the AVP before Dale Coleman finally got out of bed and made his way to MAN… Anyway please post your comments/suggestions/critism.

There in no particular order.

James

A camera lens made by Sigma – 50 to 500mm and quite big, hence ‘Bigma’.

dont worry mate get em uploaded, I’m jsut had my 5th straight reject on a.net from that LHR batch I posted….:eek:

Ahh a.net. Can’t be bothered with them anymore to be honest, it’s quite a joke what actaully gets on sometimes, no more photo requests because of ATI and the forums are a joke… Ahh well, JP is much better imho

Thanks guys! 😮

Awesome shots Sam! I love the close ups! What are the ‘specs’ of your Bigma?

Sigma 50-500mm f/4-6.3 EX DG APO – If that’s what you meant?

Sam, Cracking shots mate! I just love a good Virgin! The moisture is fantastic!

Cheers, Ian. Just having some problems with uploading them to JP atm as it’s adding craploads of compression :confused:
