While not nearly as impressive as the image posted by ocabj.... Aerial Lift Bridge in Duluth, MN. Shot in late November of this year with a Canon 7d. 5sec exposure while camera was sitting on the corner of a 1" steel railing on the lake shore (with me hovering over it to make sure it didn't go for a swim).

OK, I'll be serious...
This was snapped yesterday for a guy buying this rifle. Shot with no special set-up, Canon 40D using green box auto settings my Speedlight 380EX and either my Tamron 10-24 or 28-75 lens... fuck if I can remember!
Oh and I was pissed... like I am now!

Yup ... my two minutes with the royalty of Alaska. I had two minutes to get my stuff set, take pictures and get out.
My website hasn't been updated in probably about a year so it's not all that accurate.

Yeah, I know it's over-saturated and has some blown highlights. But I like it. First attempt at a silhouette photo. (Once I find all of my back-up drives this is one I really want to see if I can improve with the recent photo editors.)

Eta; The sensor apparently was the same as the D2H, which being two years old is sad. I didn't buy the thing. I'm pushing for a move to Canon, but we're bought in on glass... The 1DII was a similar time frame but was much better.
The D3 is pretty awesome. Better than the top end Canon bodies.
2005-2008 it was in the line. It's not bad in daylight, but hit 800 ISO and it's useless. I really would say the Rebel XT would perform better.

Yeah, the D3s and D3x pretty much stomps anything Canon has right now. The number of pros switching sure shows a trend.

Amazing how people get caught up in the number of megapixels but to take nice photos you don't need it in most cases.
Don't assume the camera with higher MP is better now a days.
