Lens test... 90mm Tamron Macro

I'm always researching, buying and testing new toys. In this case it's the Tamron 90mm f/2.8 Macro that I played with before my mothers book club meeting. I'm not one to buy and trust a third party lens but I find this lens unique. Though this is not a Macro shot it performs incrdibly well as a portrait and detail lens. With an f/stop of 2.8 it's a bit slow for my primary needs, but it is a bargain for the price.

Pets...

I went out last night and shot some long exposure dusk/night images in Black and White. While these are off getting scanned, I thoughtI would update the blog with a few images of my pets. Top image, is my brothers black lab Ella (now an adorable 6 month old). Following Ella, is our cat Brother Love (AKA Curtis Lowe). This image is printed nearly 6 foot tall and hung proudly in the window of 803 Productions for almost all of 2007. Dressed for a party is another animal rescued from a puppy mill. GG runs the house. Ready for Christmas is Annie Belle who was found as a kitten in Stein Mart parking lot. Thanks for taking the time to visit and share my passion of photography...
