This lens is incredibly sharp.

I shot this next photo over a tall fence with a shrub on the other side, both of which were taller than me. I stuck the camera over the fence for the shot and met some resistance from a branch of the shrub on the huge bulbous front element of my film era 15mm lens! Luckily, the lens has no detectable scratches, and I went over it thoroughly under bright light. So I guess all's well that ends well, but I'm still angry at myself for making such an idiotic mistake.

Anyway, here's the photo...

Only one image today, a snail shell smaller than a fingernail.

I took a few photos today, and threw most of them out. Here's a couple I kept.

A pair of somewhat similar landscapes taken with very different lenses for this day.

Jason, Like the second tree shot, it has that "artistic rendering" kind of feeling. Very nice.

Thanks a lot for the compliment, RBIV! Thanks for viewing.

Right after posting yesterday's images, I packed up my gear and went out shooting again. This time I kept most of my images. Here's a couple.

I was shooting this at waist level with live view on the most excellent adjustable rear screen. I'm not very brave about photographing strangers, so I didn't wait as long as I should have for this guy to get bigger in the frame.
