Nice mist and subdued colors. Well balanced. I think the contrast IMO is fine. Any more might detract from the mood.

Nice moody image. I feel like it could stand a bit more contrast however. The path is nicely placed in the frame and makes this work. Without it, it would be boring.
RE: The lens question... I own the 2.8 version. My thought is that it depends on what your looking for. The f4 is lightweight and more portable and indeed does cost less. The image quality will be very close to the 2.8. The 2.8 however will be much brighter to look through and having the 2.8 to work with regarding DOF is a nice benefit.
You should be able to get a great deal on a used 2.8 as many are selling to get the IS version. Check the classifieds at www.photo.net

Hi Scott. I bought the lens from B & H Photo on the web. Seems to be the best rated photo shop on the web. I paid $579 for the F/4.0L lens. The F/2.8L lens sells for $1129. Thats $550 more. These are the USA lenses, not the imported models.

Very nice, I like the path type thing there, it gives it more effect with the fog.
Off the subject though, do you think that lens (Canon 70-200 f/4L) is a better deal than the f/2.8, since its about 300 dollars cheaper? Like would the 300 dollars be worth it to have a f/2.8?
