If you are a Canon folk and was always eyeing a way to mount the much talked about Nikon 200-400 on your cam body, look no more around. Canon announced the development of 200-400 f4 IS lens at CP 2011.

It seems like a dream lens in the making, and wildlife photographers will love it. Just make sure you start saving up for it right away. Nikon one is priced at USD 6792.00 I am sure canon will price it same (which includes the 1.4x converter worth USD ~300) if not less!

The new lens will give an effective focal length of 280mm-560mm (WOW!!). Put that on a crop body like 7D and you are looking at wild moments frozen forever.

It is interesting how we have molded soil to make it into a new form for our usage. It is again something we have borrowed from mother earth.

On a more creative note, it is something that we have traditionally being using before the metal age. Even today I am sure, there are many households which use utensils made out of it.

I still remember the college days when I used to such utensil to cool drinking water.

Infinity events organized a fusion evening led by Niladri Kumar in Chowdiah Memorial Hall, Bangalore on Sept 16, 2010.

I photographed the event and some of the images I liked from the evening are below:

It was a lively crowd with good performance from the artists. Pick of the day for me was Gino Banks with the lights out performance and light emitting drum sticks.

I was pleasantly surprised to see myself showcased as a featured photographer on Mansi’s blog. She has done a wonderful writeup in portraying my passion. She has been kind to add me to the permanent featured photoblogger section.

Thanks Mansi for spreading the word of my photography skills.
