I really like the composition of the #1 shot. Excellent shot.

It really stands out compared to the others....

I understand the Photoshop bit but how do you 'lift' a picture off the forum in the first place :

(I hope this is not a daft question that is totally obvious to everyone else )
Just right click it - and then save as....

Ted - the best thing is to have it straight from start. If not correct it before uploading. If you don't have photoshop or similar - try use picasa2 from google. Very easy to use....

A very mixed set. Very easy to tell that the firrst ones are form a old film camera. The lack of sharpness and colors could be due to scanning. Are the pictures here identical to your printed version?

I doubt that. You could improve the pictures a bit with a higher contrast to bring more details.

Overall - I think you need to correct the horizon - tilting in almost all shots. Make sure to have it set when doing landscape like the church.

Keep them comming.

Perhaps you should try to connect them again - perhaps set them up to channel 2 - just to try....

It's not as crisp as some other lenses, but it is sharp and has a nice feel to the right sort of images.
That's my biggest concern.

I use it for wildlife or "zoo" shots mostly. Sometimes I feel the shotst are not crisp enough.

Hmmm.....Thanks anyway and sorry for the hijacking Terry (we seems to do that alot )

Super billeder

I really like the bird shot. As a former cat owner - I really adore those animals. Very good eye details.

Wonder to part with my FAJ 75-300 to get this Sigma instead.

Wold probably cost me a few £'s .....hmm

Well mine went for 110£ a few months back - sold to someone from south korea.

That seems to be the price for it. I did track a few of these lately. All around 90-120£

Thanks for the comments. As you say it lacks a little detail in the head. Using flash you only have one go - and this was it

Very good judging - lovely subject.

Congrats to Chirpy.
