A Few Outdoors Pictures

I agree with mongrel - they are exceptional shots, regardless of the set up. I use a D50 also and am thinking about getting a macro lens. On my 35mm SLR I used to use a 105 mm macro with 2.8 f. Loved it and that focal length served perfectly for portrait shots also.

The switch over to digital, and having focal lengths 1.5x effectively larger has played real havoc with my choice in lens selection. I'm actually debating between the 90 mm and a Sigma 60 mm macro, leaning a bit towards the 60 mm as it will bring me closer to the 105 mm I used to use with my film camera. Are you pleased with other aspects of the lens, in using it for non-macro shots?

I'm pretty impressed with the Tamron 90mm lens. I haven't taken a lot of non macro shots with it, but the ones I did came out pretty good. It's supposed to be a great lens for portrait shots. Here's a couple I shot last weekend that weren't macro:
