I know the obsession all too well...especially with the rebates going on now, I've been eyeing the 70-200 f/2.8 IS. I really like the composition of your image. I played around with similar setups but couldn't get anything to look just right. I finally ended up going with my current submission. Good luck.

Hi Mary,

I really like how you have brought out the red. It is so vibrant it brings, to me anyway, the feeling of obsession. Very nice work. Good luck this week.

A simple, effective composition. Nice entry!
(And a situation where it's definitely good to "see red"!)
regards,
Carrol

Great shot Mary, even as a Nikon user I can relate to this, it makes feel like running to the camera store.
Excellent capture for this week’s assignment!

Thank you ViperMike & Ruuskan!

When I first got into digital photography, I didn't think I even wanted a DSLR.... I was wrong. Then I figured, all my old lenses from my Canon Rebel film camera would do just fine... wrong again. Now I have a wish list that adds up to a scary amount!!

L disease is expensive, but can be very rewarding with careful treatment!!

Love the concept but would have taken the filters off as I think they distract. Good luck.

Thanks for your kind words and suggestion, Adam.

I left the filters on purposely...They are an "inseparable" part of every lens I have for that very reason--careful treatment. I never consider taking them off.

Mary,

Elegant is just the tip of the iceberg. Wonderfully shot, superbly lit and great subject. I am sure I am basis but in my opinion this is a awesome shot. Good Luck

Thanks Christian. My brother tried out my 17-40mm F4L and got it soaked with drool. He said I could GIVE it to him when I got tired of it!! *

Next on my list is the 24-105 F/4L IS USM, or the 24-70 F/2.8 L. Both are quite a way off in the future though.
