DA 18-135 WR, Show us what it can do

I have spent ages shooting with limiteds in single in challenges (the latest being the 20-40mm limited) and sometimes you need a break from the pressure of a photo per day. What better to use than the 18-135 on the K3. It is such an easy lens to live with and it holds up very nicely.

Yes, is it still a Sperrgebiet, and why, if I may ask? I guess it made some sense when the mines were there, but the place looks pretty barren and empty right now.

A couple of images taken with the 18-135 during a walk on the Waddensea, a mudflat tidal area to the north of the Netherlands. Given that we were sloshing over very slippery silt and clay, the 18-135 WR was the only viable option.

From a recent trip to Thekkady Reservoir, inside Periyar Tiger Reserve, in Kerala.

The Black animals on the top of the hill, in the third photo is a group of Bison. Really wished I had a longer lense to get a better picture of them.
