Found some nice green subjects today, so I put the Tamron on the K110D for some testing of bokeh and general sharpness and coloration. Both images slightly sharpened at 40/1/0.

The 3.5 version is one of may favourites.
These are great - lovely wide open - not sure about stopped down though. Maybe it's the sharpening. |

Hello estudleon: This is a Tamron lens, I think their "high end" zoom with the designation SP.

Yes, I too like the light on the trees. The others are even more satisfying to me, because I love the forest floor plants in all their permutations, and I like to see the beauty in their forms and delicate structures. It may be that you have to personally love something on its own merits in order to appreciate the beauty.

Me too! I always look forward to grabbing salmonberries! It's always like you have to reach higher and higher, as people go by and pick off the "low hanging fruit".

I look always on every pictures the light shine, without this I fill pictures to empty. I really miss your Velvia shoots, those are incredible.

Thanks Attila, I have more Velvia images, I just wasn't posting them much any more because of very little feedback from the forum. I am wanting to learn as much as possible, and the only way I can learn is to have a fair number of varied opinions.
That's why I appreciate your feedback here whether we agree or not. We may have different philosophies on "light" versus "form" for making an image successful. So while I may not agree with your impressions, I can still respect your impressions.

This is one of the most important thing on a forum in my opinion.A polite critique better than say nothing or say ok without meaning. I am glad we are understand each other as well.
