Only a couple today and various accessories.

Sometimes I take both our 40D's with L lenses attached so I need that size bag.
I Do need to get a smaller one for shoots when I'm out with one camera though.

Or you can ignore all that and just believe that the bag and the 100-400mm lens are simply compensation :(

I should mention that those doll shots LeAngel put up in another thread were her first attempts at serious camera work at all.
The first time she'd even used a DSLR was January this year. So these are the result of what she's learnt in the small amount of time I've had to teach her and I think she's doing great.
I don't help her more than a minute for shots like this. I gave her a few starting tips when we got there then I walked away and left her to it. Went chasing gulls. The composition and the settings are her own doing.

LeAngel, they're great. I particularly love the second one. I like the contrast and the full range of tones used.

Thanks Greg, I really had to think about taking that shot, the first couple didn't come out like I hoped, it is amazing by moving the camera just a little makes the difference.
