Buying Good Photos
Liz and I got invited to the Oracle booth again this year for the Chicago
Airshow.
I took this photo with my Sigma 170-500mm lens. I'm quite happy with
how well it performs. When I was evaluating this lens, I compared it to a
Canon Professional "L" Series 100-400mm lens that cost $1500! The Canon
was a slightly better lens -- slightly sharper and better in low-light
conditions -- but I decided that my amateur use couldn't justify the cost.
I don't think the photo is that great. It's fine technically (thanks to
the lens), just nothing significant artistically. But here it is.
