Nikon D70, 80-200mm at 1/50s, f22
Location: Rawk N' Roll Softball game, Brockton, MA
Distance: 25.5 miles, 448 American football fields
Transportation: car
This is a softball game put on by Rawkstars, which is a local start-up charity that gives children an opportunity to discover music, both locally and in Africa. They provide free instruments, free lessons and music scholarships. They are also the targets of an unfair lawsuit from RockStar Games (the parent company of GrandTheftAuto) for trademark infringement.
I am revisiting the 80-200 mm, f2.8 lens (or as I call it, the guy lens. No offense to us girls, but the thing is REALLY heavy. You need some serious arm strength to use this thing). Thanks to Dan who lent it to me for the afternoon. It's a great lens and allowed me to keep my distance from stray balls. Problems included a slower focus speed, and the fact that my arms turned to jelly after about 2 hours.

Oh, when you said, "the guy lens" I thought you meant something else. (If it's anything like my 70-210 lens, it probably protrudes rather a lot from the camera.)
