First Test Tamron SP 90
Lens: Tamron SP 90 Camera: K20D Photo Location: NW Penna ISO: 200 Shutter Speed: 1/90s Aperture: F2.8

Just a quick down & dirty first try with my new Tamron SP 90 Macro. This was hand held in the shade. I know I can do a lot better with a tripod and some different lighting, but mostly wanted to see what it looked like on-line.

No PP except a mild crop and reduced for presentation.

I've got a lot of practice ahead of me to harness the depth of field for sure!

Thanks - it's a great lens!

I am going to try this flower again with a tripod - the depth of field is so thin at f2.8 - the far left flower bottom is out of focus, along with the edge of the 5th one from the left.

This is the kind of challenge I've be waiting for all winter!

Excelente trabajo en condiciones que no son las ideales. Me gusta mucho y sólo creo que la composición podría ser mejorable.

Saludos cordiales, Carlos
