It looked promising from the beginning....







Chatting away with Jaro, like fans at a Soccer game, Jaro's Sony



The peak was absolutely spectacular.



And still provided some great images even as it faded..

Very Nice. Do you like the Sigma lens. I have the Tamron version and zoom range is very convenient. I probably shoot 80% of my photos with it.

I like the convenience, but, I missed my 60-250, 18-135 and Sigma 70 macro, my usual combination. I think next trip, I'll leave home my boots and GPS and see if I can take them. But for traveling light, what a combination that 21 and 40 XS is. The two of them, in a pelican case, fit in the side pocket of a waste belt.

With this image I took 4 images with the 18-250 and all four images had lens flare, 4 similar images with the 21 ltd and none of them had any flare at all.

21 ltd


Sigma 18-250
