Just saw this photog using this huge lens and thought I would never lug something like that around. Then remembered that when I am shooting with male friends, they are always looking at other peoples' big lenses with envy. I never feel that. So perhaps it is a male thing.
Cropped, cloned out a small blemish on the right edge, levels, brightness/contrast, 60% vivid light on the lens, selective levels to darken background, burned edges, resized, smart sharpened very slightly, saved for web.

His camera looks so tiny in comparison to that thing! Very comical and appropriate - good idea :) When I voted, I remember laughing hysterically at this one, thank you!
Wow, I've got some serious lens envy after looking at this photo! I must be like your guy friends :-) And for the record, I thought a woman took this photo for sure, because while guys like to allude to their, um size being XL, they don't tend to like to allude to the whole "compensation" thing :-)
Ok Julianne, now you've just made me jealous. Maybe I can hang this picture on the fridge in hopes that my wife will take the hint for my birthday coming up. HaHa.
I think this photo might have worked better with a really strikingly beautiful woman standing next to this guy with a tiny little camera, or maybe her with the big camera and him with the little one - not sure but it needs something to set it apart aside from the title. just my opinion of course - lord knows i am not a pro!
