Just purchased the Sigma 17-70 & am very impressed by the contrast/sharpness, great lens. One of my first shots...

Nice spot. I think you left the sun just a little late, would've been nice to have some on the green at the bottom to show the shape, but then again that assumes you have some spare time!

A nice image.

I use the same lens and I am satisfied so far.

After seeing my shots of similar scenes (about a hundred of them), I think including a walking person or a vehicle adds some touch to these. When we have the chance, I mean...

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the comments - I agree some extra sun might add more detail to the lower fields, must admit though that I quite like the emphasis on the rocky cliff face

Regarding people etc, to be honest, I generally prefer to keep them out of my shots - I agree that in mountain path shots etc they can add some perspective but wherever possible I avoid people in the frame

thanks
