what do i take?

[richlondoner]

Atlanta in 3 weeks... For 2 weeks. Work 9-5... But I will have 2 weekends completely free...

I mainly photo wildlife, nature, landscapes. But happy to have a go at night and cityscapes...

Camera - 7d

Lenses - all canons
10-22
16-35 f2.8 mk ii
24-104 f4
70-200 f4 is
300mmf4
100mm f2.8 macro is

Others -
1.4 ext mkii
Gorilla pod SLR tripod


So I need to a) pack light and b) make sure it fits in a medium sized day pack, think 20 litre...

I am thinking 10-22, 24-104 and 70-200 plus the gorilla pod and extender.

Sound sensible?

Living in ATL, I can give you three places to go (none will you need your 300). Oakland Cemetery (I shoot there about once a month), Piedmont Park (Has a man made lake overlooking the Midtown skyline), and the Botanical Gardens.

What you need: Wide Angle, Normal Zoom, macro. When I am out and about, I rarely need my 70-200 and you certainly won't need the tele-extender.

Is the Georgia Aquarium photo friendly? From what I have seen and heard, it appears to be magnificent. I hope to make it there one day.

Very True, though you need high ISO to take pictures in there.
