    Thanks guys. My wife and I will be heading up to see the wild flower blooms in a couple of weeks so I hope to be able to get some more practice in with my WA.

    I'm new to the forum (and new to DSLR photography) and found this wonderful thread with so much advice on using WA lenses. A big thank you to everyone!

    I recently purchased a Nikon 12-24 mm (shooting on a D40) and had some fun with it at a local mill last weekend. Comments and critique would be appreciated. It's spring-time in Ontario so the colours are pretty boring right now. I purchased the new WA lens in anticipation of my upcoming trip to Asia (Hong Kong, China, Philippines) so any travel photography tips would also be appreciated.

    Here is one of my first attempts with the 10-22. I shot this within a few feet of this 20 ft giant

    That is a hauntingly beautiful shot for a first time pic.

    Thanks Khristen. It is an HDR and it is hanging on my wall, so I like it too. Glad you enjoyed it.

    I got the Tokina 11-16 2.8 for Christmas and I've been experimenting more and more, trying to get a feel what makes a dynamic wiiiiiide image. Here's a few I shot yesterday.
