Excited to welcome a new member to our glass lineup with the Canon 16-35mm f/2.8 L II! Pretty stoked to have a fast wide zoom that is sharp as a tack. At first when Tanner brought up the idea I was against it saying we should upgrade our Sigma 14mm f/2.8 or purchase a 45mm...

Yesterday was the first day of 2011 here in Iowa with dazzling weather! It makes me think that summer is just around the corner. Well hopefully! Driving home last night I ended up just north of Carroll, Iowa on highway 71 when the sun was setting. I’ll take 45 degrees and a gorgeous sunset any...
