Hi Guys!
Great to be back from Orlando and among friends again! nod.gif
I got some good photography weather at MCO, and decided to finally give my new Canon D60 and 100-400mm IS USM lense a test.. and the results were shocking! images/smiles/icon_eek.gif
The comparison below really shows just how nice a truly good lense is.
The first photo, below, was taken with slight zoom (I'd guess about a 45 mm shot) from the heliport on top of MCO overlooking Airside 4. Note the Southwest 737 on the right hand side of the photo, which is departing runway 35.

The next shot was taken at full 400mm zoom from the identical location on top of the airport of a Delta 767 departing runway 35 (the same runway as Southwest above). I couldn't believe the results!
