_____Random Info
   Taken on an overcast autumn day this is the first picture posted here which I took with my new Sigma 70-200 which I originally bought for my recent trip to the Alps. Sadly none of the pictures I took there were any good since I haven't really grown accustomed to Tele-Scapes yet.

   Still I was able to put my lens to good use last week shooting some wildlife at the Nature Park Granat near my hometown where I already went a couple of times last winter. Thought I might as well try to capture some autumnal impressions before fall is over. I intentionally tended to use a warmer white balance to emphasise the autumanl feeling. I might be heading out to shot some herons later today as well if I can find the time to do so.

Oh why we don't have this kind of forests in Finland? :< marvellous shot!

Hehe, therefore you get other forests, lots of lakes, shorelines, ice, snow, northern lights and thousand other things people would kill for. ;)

well... yes. :D;D;D;DD You are right. But it's hard to photograph ice and snow when your lens frozes outside.

There is an easy solution to this, you need to acclimatize the gear slowly, for example putting your gear outside or in the non-heated garage (of course in the bagpack) before you head out so the material doesn't cool down too fast. ;)

No problem. I assume there are several good guides out there which have more specific information about how to do that properly. ;)
