I haven't been taking many photos recently, for some reason I've almost lost interest, but I spend a lot of time over at WIWBAK3.

Beautiful shots norm. That tamron 300 seems to pair very nicely with either k3 or k1 and either the 1.4 or 1.7. I've noticed the 1.4 on many of your shots before, but haven't seen much of that 1.7. Do you have a preference between the two?

Lovely images normanhead...out of all the Da* lenses I find this lens the fastest focusing...perfect for this type of photography...well done.

The 1.4 vignettes in full frame on some shots. The 1.7 is a fill frame TC.

You wouldn't believe the speed of the Tamron.
