I recently bought my first ever true macro from a forum member (Tamron 90 2.8), so I'm waiting for sunny days in our area, for now - shooting any bug I see

You are off to a good start. My first macro wasn't that good. Come to think of it, 50 years later many of my macros are still not that good.

I took a nose dive into researching all the available options, and the Tamron seemed like the best bang for the buck for the system, so when I saw a nice copy for sale I grabbed it right away

I went to Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge today. Not much going on other than a spat over housing between some Canada Geese. It was a bad day to be a frog. One red wing blackbird was enjoying the long delayed arrival of spring. These images shot with my K1-II and my D FA 150-450 lens.

Unfortunately I drove an hour and a half to the wrong town so this is the only racing motorcycle shot I got.

The D-FA 24-70.

Hi Tas

Yes it wasn't your day you still missed the motorcycle but captured the house it passed.

Needs more miata, but otherwise very nice.

There is something about pixel shift images -- a tonality perhaps that really shines. Obviously it take a still day, but it is worth the effort when it works.

It's the first lens I bought to supplement the Kit lens from my K20D, and since then I've used this lens with all my bodies on a regular basis.
It's an incredible Macro lens and back in the days I've shot a ton of portrait and product stuff with this lens and my K20D, only later did I realised it was too clinical for portrait.
But I was living in West Africa where Pentax lenses were super difficult to find so when I found this Tamron 90mm I was in heaven.

Yesterday, walking around the streets I shot a Shiba Inu dog with this lens, wonderful dog by the way !

Happy days ahead AWSCREO !

Three K-1 • APSC mode • DA55-300PLM - Birding

Not much birding until now. I try to get accustomed to it. Seems hard to catch small birds in flight when not far away. So today no BIF, just captured them sitting - called Birds in Sitting - BIS?!

One K-1 • APSC mode • DA55-300PLM - PSR

By the way ... @jabobby & @fs999 thank you for your nice comments on the last two macros!
