Wows. Seriously - when do you get close enough to a bird like this to use a lens with a max FL of 35mm??

My gran-pappy taught me ya have to get close enough to sprinkle salt on their tail while makin' noises like a worm. Or, in this case, like a mouse.

Gotta admit though, 35mm wasn't my choice of FL at that moment an' there was a l'il bit of croppin' involved.

One from the weekend with the Tammy 17-50 F2.8. HDR of 5 braketed shots.

Sat there for hours and just when the light was getting to the right spot, a group of kids came along... fortunately the father came along and moved them along before the light changed too much.

This is my first post to the lens club. This lens is an older generation 90mm with macro. I have tried to find it listed in the lens reviews, but not sure it's there. I am really enjoying the lens, and hope to get better with experience.

I purchased this lens from Ebay awhile ago. It is a Tamron 28-105mm AF 1:4-5.6 (IF). The lens was reasonably priced, and brand new in box with full warranty. Interestingly, all of the Exif data shows this lens to be a Pentax FA 28-105mm. Were the two lenses manufactured together? Would anyone know why there is a connection between the two lenses?
