p.12 And it "fits" perfectly here too. Been giving your new gear a workout?

Not yet. I just got my 24-105 Art about 5 days ago...only snapped a few shots...mostly of my cat, "Twinkie." I haven't even put it on my a77 yet. I might have to break out my focus target at some point. A99ii images don't seem spot on and I haven't tried anything at 5.6, 8, etc. so it might sharpen up, but then I had to adjust my 150-600 to negative 3 to get it sharp. Some lenses work right out of the box and some don't since they're not made at the same factory as the cameras. I'm expecting a dock in about a week or two...never used one, but it was free so what the hell. I think it only works on the newest lenses, like the art series, but I'm not sure. It would be nice if Tamron had such a thing.

I tried but I don't think it turned out very well. This is what our pine tree looked like after our recent snow storm.
The spider web is from my archives. I was not tying when I got that one.

Love the Web shot Jill..pg. 11

I posted this a month or 5 ago. Taken with my Sigma 105 macro @f/4 using my a99ii body, handheld, 1/160 sec. I thought the background was blurry enough that I didn't have to go f/2.8.

Lovely ..pg. 12

Don't have much in this category.
I'm old old fashion, like every thing in shot focused sharply! But times that doesn't happen.
Here are a few than might apply to this challenge.
Lenses used were 24-70mm f2.8 or 18-400mm f3.5 zoom.

ISO=500, f8, SS=1/200, 24-70@63mm
