Michael's thread made me take out the the mirror to make sure all was ok with it...I am glad I did as this is the sharpest I think I have managed with the cat photos







I am very happy at the way the Tamron handles the reds of the roses it seems to be the best lens yet for getting the color right without PP.


A little later in the day I must say i am very happy with the moon shot minimal PP

Oh so close to getting them in focus!



The sun has almost gone.

So you just had to choose for a favorite subject to get good results! Motivation has its own effects, isn't it!?

Never ask my dog if he likes to be photographed. Just give him some snoop to keep him a bit patience to stay in his place. Only one drawback, sometimes he is too visible mouthwatering seeing the camera directed to him before I can get the shots done Shocked.
Dunno how that works with a cat Rolling Eyes

I like your moonshot and the birds.

This is what you should obtain, Michael, if it can be serviced.
