More Experiments with the 70-300 May 13, 2008 — winterwoman I’m thinking I could like this lens, though it will take me some more practice, and some coaching, to understand all the features and idiosyncrasies… The white Large-flowered Trillium turns pink as it ages.

When we go to bed at night, we all expect a safe, quiet night in our own homes. Unfortunately, this isn’t always the case and there are a lot of thugs out there who would love to ruin your night. Even though police forces everywhere work hard at keeping the piece, they can’t be everywhere all the time.

The Keeper Alectoris chukar in it's natural environment. I found a bunch of them and as i got closer they started to run away one by one, scared. This one been running last. He stopped on upper rocks and watched me coming and his friends running, signaling them with usual «kwa-kwa» until i've got too close.

I was shooting photos around the house the other day and was zoomed way in on this flower with my new Tamron 70-300 lens when I saw a bee starting to buzz around it. I quickly aimed the camera to the flower he was flying towards and ended up getting this shot.

It was a nice day after work today so I decided to take a few photos around the yard. Its finally starting to feel more like spring here in Massachusetts with the flowers blooming so I thought I would post this photo of a newly blossoming weeping cherry tree.

I took this photo last weekend while testing my new Tamron 70-300 lens. I was taking a macro shot and I think it came out really well. As a surprise bonus I got a bee buzzing by that came out pretty clear in the photo. It is on the right hand side of the picture in case you did not see it.

As I have said in my last couple of blog posts I recently ordered and received a new lens the Tamron 70-300 Di LD Macro. I was looking for a lens for my Pentax K10d that could get in closer for wildlife pictures and after a lot of research this seemed like the most affordable solution.

As promised here is another shot I took today with my new lens the Tamron 70-300 Di LD Macro. I barely saw this little squirrel in the tree he blended in so well with it. He looks pretty comfortable laying on that branch. I am pretty happy with this lens so far it.
