Test Shot
by sam-joseph
This is one of the first shots with my new Sigma 17-70 f2.8-4.5. No adjustments here, not even a crop. I've had to put a UV filter on, as the lens can focus at any focal length, touching the subject!Not a bad pseudo-macro.

Nice colours and details, but it seem to dark a bit.

Thanks for the comments. I know it needs a little bit of tweaking, but I was just so impressed with the first efforts of that great lens. I recommend it!

A lovely soft and appealing picture. If you have a processing programme, I would just gently sharpen the centre of the flower so that yellow stands out more. This would draw the eye to the centre of the flower.
For me, at present, I would be expecting the most interesting part of the picture to immediately draw the eye towards it. I feel that is not happening as well as it could.
