Tokyoso: More people shots with Tamron 70-300 Di LD Macro

These are awesome: shot through with the meaning of life--intergenerational communication, in the form of passing on knowledge (in this case, photographic) is the reason for being! And you have captured it all here in a few, elegant shots--thank you!

saien: Wow, that's beautiful!

I am not able to express the joy you bring in letting me know you like the shot--thank you!

Bimjo: Understatement.

Seriously

Nice shot, with big color and bokeh! I think the DOF you chose really flatters your composition.

jgredline Some boring flowers

Now that's no way to introduce a post The flower in the 1st and 3rd pics is awesome--anything but boring--I have never seen them before, or else never noticed them.

To be honest, on my monitor, that yellow flower looks a bit out of focus though???

Sticking with the floral theme, here is one @ f 6.3:

Love that background.. Nice shot! What lens did you use?

[bimjo]

Floral? I can do that. It seems to be what I do the most of lately.

Yes, I agree with you!

Thank you! That be the outstanding bokeh of the Tammy 90mm, as you so well described it above.

jgredline: Tamron 28-75mm

Nice, nice, nice--that lens not only has fantastic IQ, but it is a big Show-off too!

Man, you are making it very hard to resit buying that 17-50 Tamy. I have the 17-35 tamy that is very near and dear to me and is sharp as a tack. My largest fear is that the 17-35 will out perform the 17-50..What size filter does that tamy have?

Jarvier, thank you, very much for the complement. To be honest, I do not know a lot about the 17-35, but what I do know tells me it should be, at least, the equal of the 17-50, if not better--particularly since it focuses on a smaller zoom range. I do not have any specs in front of me. If however, you had a specific need for a constant f 2.8 in this range, then it might prove useful to you.

The 17-50 uses the 67mm filter thread to accommodate the light gobbling tendency f a f 2.8 zoom. Please bear in mind, I usually shoot Raw, and spend time PPing--also, I use ND grads in my landscapes along with polarizers, always seeking to better my images.

Can you do me a favor, can you post some more shots with your 17-35? I think what we have here, in your LBA (as in my LBA) is another case of the "grass appearing greener" from a different angle. I would be very curious, if you shot with the 17-50mm, if you would still see it as a replacement for your 17-35. Interesting discussion, as always!
