Windy beach

Crescent Beach, Surrey, B.C., Canada

This photo is shot with a macro/tele lens.
My light walk around kit is a Canon 180mm Macro lens attached to a Canon 5D body in a Lowepro Top Loader Zoom bag hung on my chest with a Lowepro chest harness.
In the front pocket of the bag is a Canon 17-40mm zoom lens.
With this kit, I have macro range of life size, to 17 mm ultra wide angle coverage, to 40 mm near "normal" range, to 180 mm tele range. Very versatile and functional. : )

Canon EOS 5D ,Canon EF 180mm f/3.5L Macro USM
1/2500s f/4.0 at 180.0mm iso200 full exif
