I'm posting this picture not so much for the artistic content, but because I find it a miracle of modern technology that there is anything even recognizable in it: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/4987096603/
It was shot at night, with the K-x and the 18-250 without flash, of a parachuter landing in the dark. Yes, if I'd had a faster prime on the camera, I might have actually gotten a fairly reasonable shot, but in the dust and wind at burning man, I did not want to be changing lenses. Since I was mostly going to be taking photos of things that were either lit up, or on fire, I figured that the versatility of the 18-250 was more important than speed. It was shot hand held at 6400 f/4.0 1/15 Sec at 25mm.
