But I find it hard to get a composition that interests me. Keeping the background undistracting is a task. And I even find it tricky to see exactly what is in focus. I've had the lens for a few months now, and have only managed to get a handful of shots that I like.

The swirly shot didn't do as much for me as I thought it would (I thought from the thumbnail it looked interesting) -- closer up I felt it had too *much* swirl. The pelican might have been better if you were lower down (try Christian's frying pan tripod :-)), his head was too much in line with the horizon, would have been nice to have more of him silhouetted against the sky. A note, I prefer PESOs to GESOs. I rarely have the time to spend much time looking at GESOs. Lots of times I just skip them completely. The exception for me, is PDML meets, etc. And I know I am not the only one who feels that way. Trees are nice. Keep trying. Marnie aka Doe
