All were taken with Tamron SP90/2.5 and Pentax *istDs during a couple of days hike in Oulanka nature park. Most of my shots were taken with kit lens or with the LX-compo in one of the images as the main thing was the hiking (not photography), but I'm glad I desided to pull SP90/2.5 from the back for some close-ups etc.

I love these.

I just can't believe how much it looks like here at home in Maine.

My cousins husband, now in his 70s, is from Finland. He always said it looked like home here.

I put these up "for no other reason" than to show you how much your area looks like mine.

Years ago with the 20D. Not very high quality, but you can see what I mean.

Thanks, Schnauzer!

It sure looks similar. The Oulanka nature park is the most popular nature resort in Finland, and probably the most photographed also Smile.

I often wonder why there'd be a need for any other lens in that general focal length range... the SP 90 is so good. Excellent photos, and yeah, makes me miss home.

Number 5 is simply great !

Thank you, Klaus, Nesster and Olivier.

I agree that the SP90 is a great lens... but there is a lot of great competition in 85-90mm range Smile. If you think the price of the lens it's bargain.

I composed the #5 and saw that there was something still missing from the photo, luckily there was a canoe on it's way downstream and I managed to get that in the picture.

Heh. It's surprising how often something like that happens, to set it off right.

The right place at the right moment. Wink

This is the ability of the photographer to be careful, to notice this moment, move at the right place and shoot at the very right moment to catch such beautiful instants.
