World Cup shots are up on ze Flickr.
I had a great time taking photos out there today. Poaching pros remote flashes (via CLS) included.
The look on one photog's face was priceless as he was trying to work out why his flashes kept going off.
Oh and another annoyance was not having a media pass, I've got a heap of otherwise awesome shots with tape going right through the riders face. Arrrghhh, should've worked that out before hand.

Digressing from the WC photos for a moment, a shot from this afternoon.
I'm not too sure about it, but it kind of tickles my fancy. What do the snobs think.

Met up with a mate who was up for Worlds on Monday, and since we were both bored before his flight we did a frantic 2hr tour of most of the Canberra "sights" so more cliched (and some not so cliched) photos for your viewing pleasure.
These two are the only ones have had a chance to look at sofar, and the colours may be off as im on battery power at Melbourne airport (and having to deal with crappy internet here).
Enjoy:
NMA Again
Treasury Building
About 8-10 other "sights" to process, but the laptop battery wont hold up for that unless i can find power over in International later.

Feelin' a bit rrranty
Yeah, learn how to take good photos with the gear you've got before dropping $1300+ of daddy's money on a lens you don't need.

Bowlo, I'm having a simular decision to make myself.
From the research I have done + asking here, the F2.8 non-IS is fine for sports, as the faster shutter doesn't rely on IS as much, so that is the lens that I (yah.. me.. not the 'rents) will be buying when I can get my act together.
Leitch (possibly Tristian) did a good summary of boths lens a few pages back, but each ones cons was the others pros, and visa versa.
EDIT: Found it.

When I saw this thing in Canberra mate, the first thing I thought was how stoked you'd be on it...
Hot shot btw. Love the rubble.
