What's your favourite / most used lens chaps

Mine's gotta be my canon 24-105mm F4, use it almost every day

Another vote for the Canon 24 - 105mm f4 L, very versatile quality lens, its on my camera 90% of the time.

The underside of the Red Admiral is really beautiful as shown in this great photo.

Like it Jack, but would prefer to see the sunflowers central part of the image

The thinking behind the composition was that the Sunflowers were on the move through the corn field, talking to each other, and the space in front of them is where they were heading. Their position placed on one of the "Rule of Thirds" axis. (Christ, what must I have had to drink before coming up with this!)

Milky way over Birling Gap

Complete with shooting star! (Above the middle house)
Not an aeroplane, otherwise there'd be a line of red and green dots.

Edit: And another (or a satellite) at the top 2/3 across.

Not the best quality, but i could not work out what it was. i was really far away. so what i had to do was zoom in on the picture to make it clearer. but i am not to sure what it is. excuse the poor quality and lack of focus

Had a walk along the sea front last night.

I was at graduation yesterday, and as well as being given the normal unrequited gifts of tea (we have a lot of Chinese students), aftershave, chocolate, alcohol, etc. I also came away with a Canon 6D body, which was nice.

Which 'everyday' lens would you recommend for such a camera?

Easy Answer....... Canon 24-105mm F.4. I use it for 80% of my work, I am on my second one now and bought my replacement new on Ebay, there are loads of dealers selling them for the around the £420 mark. Great Lens
