The matronly Patron

Took this with my new Siggy from a galaxy far far away :laughing: (by the way, I need assistance in picking a nice nickname for this lens, Siggy does not cut it for me - somehow I was thinking "Louise" or "Bert" - still confused about the sex of this lens....). Was just checking if I can use this thing as a portrait lens as well ...

270mm, f11, 1:160, ISO200, handheld

A lot of detail in that shot for a handheld at 270mm and 1/160 of a second. You are steady as a rock. Nice!

Have to admit: put my elbows on the table to get the shot ... I do like the sharpness of this lens, though ....

wow - you can really get "in yo face" with that puppy

I'd call her "Mrs. Bertha Bigma" but that's just me. :)
