Title: SiS: Snail in Sphagnum
Post by: Bob_B on January 05, 2016, 08:40:43 pm: I recently received a gift of a Canon 100 mm f/2.8L IS USM lens and took it for a spin a few days ago. Most of my lenses are zooms, so using a prime was a real treat. I can easy see this lens becoming one of my workhorse lens. Here is a photo taken during a recent trek. I hope you find it interesting.

No magic, just f/6.3. Thank you for viewing.
