Rick, I didn't have my book with me at the time to get an autograph.

Nice shot using that tamron 24-70mm VC. Best of all, without flash.
Feeling of buying this lens is so near ...

Remember that this is for a full frame camera. It can be used for a crop sensor but you need to figure in the 1.5 crop factor. It will be a 36 to 105 on a crop sensor camera. Check out the Sigma 17-50 F2.8 with IS. I have it and it is a very sharp lens and is designed for DX cameras.

WOW!, Great shot Jeff. Now when you get back home you can make a color correction on the Castle and it will be a perfect picture.
