I didn't have much room to move around (trees). What I could have done was to zoom out a bit, but there was a lot of disturbing objects (stones and rocks) by the legs. In short, I did not have much choice. Shoot like this, or don?t. I tried getting a better position, but I scared it of. The result

My oldest son, the one I mentioned in a post an hour ago, has bought himself a second hand ME-super in London. It seemed ok in the store, but it failed shortly after leaving the shop. We had to go home to Norway before the shop opened again. We tried to send a mail to the shop telling about the

This sounds like picking the whole thing apart, it sounds complicated. Like something you do by the fire when it's to cold to stay outside. Not a hit and run repair. BTW. I've got another picture I'll like to show you. A young horse, in lovely lighting.

There was a thread on a similar lens. Got the Version 3 (manufactured by Komine) on hand for about 75 US$. Is this a good lens? Tim Another Norwegian.

The statue is very nice. I like the light, with the focus at the Madonnas face, and the dark stones... The landscape pictures is another thing. Very nice, in a way, but the nature looks a bit unnatural to me. My guess is a bit mush contrast. But the composition is very good, and I like the
