Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6 EX DC HSM - Wigma

Another one from my recent trip with this lens, i had no problem hand holding this lens at a very low shutter speed. Also i get a lot of keepers with this lens

Wow! That is REALLY freaky! How did you set that up if you don't mind me asking?

It's just a lot of photoshopping. I made 4 shots of my daughter, standing on the white shelf, one with straight legs (head down), and two more with each leg against a wall. Then I moved her up to the ceiling with all the shadows, and carefully copied two bent legs with shadows, from other two shots. I used one flash bounced from a wall. The idea wasn't original - I was inspired by http://www.flickr.com …s/lukesharratt/​5487140983.

That's great.

I'll have to try that with my daughter. That's pretty neat.

These are the 4 original photos:

Heh, that's the same way I just did mine. Cool! I'm going to be busy for the next couple hours or so.

4 Minuter exposure, it sure got bright in the image i could barely see the camera.

Just got mine in the mail earlier today. Not sure how soon I will get outside to try it out, been busy working on grad school applications through until next week. Going on a snowboarding trip with in February with my buddies to Le Massif in Quebec, so I'd like to get some practice in with this lens prior to heading out there

Great build quality, compared to my other lenses, which wasn't a surprise, but welcome none-the-less.
I know from specs that the MFD is 24cm, but I didn't notice that marked on the lens anywhere like Canon lenses do. Not a big deal but I don't always remember each lens' specs if I'm swapping them out.

My backyard at midnight the other night, under a full moon. I put my 60D on a tripod, set it to manual mode, wide open aperture, and 30" exposure.
In the uncropped pic I can see stars. There's a planet on the right above the house, my neighbors with holiday lights on all nights.

I was amazed how much color came through despite how dark it was out.

Pulsar, that is a very clever shot, great work! Only thing that I would do is increase the contrast, to give it a more scary feel!
