More Sigma 150 macro goodness...I know many of you have seen this shot before, but it just oozes sharpness...good demo shot.

Is it just me, or does your model look like Stephen T. Colbert?

Heh! It's my father in law. Not Stephen Colbert (though that would be awesome!)

Sigma 150/2.8, maybe we should rename this thread to the 150/2.8 macro thread.

No. There's a 75 pound dog at the end of that leash.

Andreas,

Would you like me to shoot some shiny/contrasty stuff just for you?

Seriously. You name it, I'll shoot it.

One other question, Andreas; can we post samples from lenses that do not have APO in their names, but perform like one?

Testing out my new toy:

I really love this flower shot. Is it some kind of Lotus flower?

Thanks Wayne .

Yes it is a lotus or water lilly. I shot it at Hong Kong Park
