No flash used, so no red eye problem!

The Karakorum mountains near the Tibet border north of Leh, Ladakh. Some of these reach heights of 25,000 feet.

I know.... These are one of the best shots from me. A couple of semi-reputed online publications have requested for them to be used, to which I have agreed.

redcandle · 2nd January 2008, 04:58

I don't know where to ask this but could anyone tell me how much can I get these from in India:

Canon 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6 L IS USM (used or new)
Canon 100-400mm f/3.5-5.6 L IS USM (used or new)

A decent Canon Flash.
A decent Manfrotto (or any other) tripod but has to be cheap.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks Mobike,

I came back home late on NewYearsDay and had only a couple hours till some appointment in the morning. Made use of this time to upload pictures on Flickr and pictures with a current title, with a current theme and one of the first pictures of this event in London on Flickr..... a lot of people are bound to look the pictures and want to use/publish them.

One of the pictures was even featured in the sites "EXPLORE / INTERESTING" section, which I think is quite an achievement for a novice like me amongst millions of pros on the site.
