Excellent capture Ossie. Is that a wide angle lens or a pano? Just curious.

Very nice. I have the same lens. Should try a wide angle landscape one of these days. Usually it is on my A77II.

Machu Pichu Complex from Huyana Pichu. Not a typical view of Machu Pichu. Typical views are from the left of the complex or from the hut in the middle on the top third with the Huyana Pichu in the scene.

Turtle taken at 1200mm. Well, not exactly 1200mm. :) I was at 600mm-efl and used the 2x digital tele-converter to get a pseudo 1200mm-efl as I wrote about here:
