If you need to trim down I would eliminate all but one of the near
duplicates (for example you have two eagles sitting in the tree...
Both eagle shots are good, but I personally prefer the one without the

Seriously, as most of you probably already know, soft focus does have
its place. The brides would love a series that I would do (back in my
wedding photography days) that was close-ups of the BG looking into

If you want to try a 200mm that will surprise you, give the old
Tele-Takumar 200mm f5.6 preset lens a try. Very lightweight (49mm

I'm not sure if this qualifies as readily accessible to you or not,
but the Lowepro Flipside series of backpack bags are kind of
ingenious. When wearing it as a pack the zipper side is against your
back (pickpockets/thieves can't open it). But it has a strap that goes
