Smaug
Lens: DA 18-135mm Camera: Pentax K30 Photo Location: KL Tower animal zone ISO: 1000 Shutter Speed: 1/25s Aperture: F5.6

We had some time to waste, and no good place nearby but an animal zone.
So, I ended up with just this one shot.
It remembered me of Smaug (the dragon in "the hobbit" novel )



I shot this one with the worst exposure settings (based on reviews) of my DA 18-135mm (135mm f/5.6) and despite all the bad reviews, I think it's still quite usable and acceptable of course not as sharp as my A 50 f/1.7
