Hi Godfrey Yes I thought as much myself, it was early morning (7am) here in the UK, it's been raining the past couple of days and overcast so the light was not good. Exposure time was down to 1/200 sec @ f5.6 ISO400, I didn't want to increase ISO with the K10D, I prefer to keep below 400. I quite often stop at this place on my way to work, gather my thought for 15 minutes, sometimes taking a few shots. There's a boat house (now a cafe) in an area that gives any ultrawide lens a thorough test, it's the first thing I shoot with wide lenses. I'll post a PESO some day and all will become obvious.

It didn't seem quite as sharp as what I'd expect from an exposure with a sturdy tripod ... thought I saw a small amount of camera motion blur. What was the exposure time?
