Lockets of Love
Lens: Sigma 18-35 f/1.8 Camera: K-5 IIs Photo Location: Huashan, Shaanxi, China ISO: 100 Shutter Speed: 1/200s Aperture: F8

People have been interested in seeing what the new Sigma 18-35 can do. Here's one example. I've got a lot more to show eventually, but I need to clear out my backlog of the past year or so before I get there.

These are lockets of love on Huashan in China. People buy lockets, have them engraved with their names, and then attach them to rails to make their love last forever. Red is for good fortune.

Wow, Sigma ought to pony up a "pro fee" for images like these--no doubt you have superior post processing skills, but the depth of crimsons in the right hand corner of the frame is striking, even viewed on my laptop.

I actually didn't do that much to this image in PP. For reference, here's (a smallified) camera JPEG.

As you see, most of the work was in removing red tint from the background and trying to bring the mountains through the haze.
