This is the lens Graham is talking about.

The Canon EF 200-400mm f/4L IS USM Extender 1.4x

However, this shot was actually taken with this lens:

Image
The Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM

I have both. Plus a couple of others (Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM and Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM)

Ah, thanks for the pictures. I don't know much about those, but they look like beauties to me. :D

Do you have a pic of the lens that you used to take a pic of those lenses?

OK, wait a minute. Did the A64 in Yorkshire really get closed down two weeks ago because of mashed potatoes in the roadway?

The A64 is not a large road, at least in this location. It's one lane in each direction. Plus this wasn't a plate of mash, it was a quarter of a lorry load of 'instant mash' (aka smash) granules that then started to expand with the water on the road. Funny though. *<:*)X
