On the way, and in the news...

On the way - a 70-200 to replace my cheapo 70-300. And a 2.8, no less! Finally I will have the speed for indoor sports and the glass for nice blur, attractive bokeh, short depth of field. You cannot imagine how excited I am. I mean really, it's only a 70-200. Nothing that special. But this lens will be Mine. No more renting! 
In other news, the NY Times has put up a stellar photo blog. The format is very nice and the posts are quite interesting. Great insight into the best journalism in the US, if not the world. http://lens.blogs.nytimes.com
