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

Images like that you can bet I moved in past minimum focusing distance and then back out enough to give myself a bit of wiggle room. The light is light peeking through fir tree branches. The camera is pointed up on maybe a 30 degree angle.

I also have an 18-135 shot Flickr found worthy of an Explore. Though I'm puzzled why it was deemed worthy.

My sigma 17-70C is gathering dust after I bought this lens. I can't think of a more versatile lens when travelling.

The sun is out again today, but cold, the spring melt pretty much came to a halt.

K-3, DA 18-135

Wintergreen , being green in the winter, like it's supposed to.

And of course, my walking companions...

Holy mackerel, you get around, Florida, Colorado and Honduras in what a couple of weeks?

In keeping with one of the recent themes here, I'll add a wildlife photo. I took this by rolling down the drivers window in my vehicle. Miquelon Provincial Park, Alberta. Even though it's March, I still have to bump up the exposure and adjust white balance because natural light is so dull.

Ooh, I've got one of those

Ha, yeah I guess so but Colorado doesn't really count because that's home! It's just how this timing worked out.

You've got some raised hackles there, clearly not an acclimatized to cars and humans Algonquin Park moose.
