Felt like taking the 10-20 out a bit
Lens: Sigma 10-20 f/3.5 Camera: K3 Photo Location: Home Aperture: F8 
Posted By: fgaudet, 09-02-2014, 07:20 PM

The little 10-20 (ok, not little at all) has been resting in my lens case for way too long, I felt obligated to take her out for some quick snaps while walking the dog. It was a beautiful day and as the sun was setting behind the trees the light was just awesome.

Every time I put this lens on one of my camera I'm always very pleased with how it performs. Somehow I forget how much I like it at 10mm, I really like the almost fisheye distortion it has.

I've pushed the details and the shadows a little bit more than I would normally do so it gives a slight HDR look. With the sun this low, it was very hard to get a proper exposure of the foreground without blowing the sky, it's nice that the K3 still captured plenty of details in the deep shadows, even when exposing 1 to 1.5 stops too dark.

Hope you like them

You made really good use of this lens {I have one also, and I'm still learning how to best use it}
