The first shot is super, love the hills and the shadows of the clouds.
Also really like the macro's of the flowers, like how you place the DOF in the last two.
Why don't you submit some to the PPG?

I can see why you love this lense ! I have the same feeling as Anvh - love the hill shot, super-sharp, and the flower shots. Congrats on a fine piece of glass !

The flower shots are the pick for me, 7 and 8 but especially 8. Enjoy the lens.
