This is my 1st time using a lens of this length and size. It is an adjustment both physically and creatively. When the weather here is so frigid it adds to the difficulty for me, having physical challenges. Here are a couple of my 1st efforts.
The 1st two are cropped, the third is not...All in all I feel the Tamron's vibration control is very good for hand holding such a large lens. I'm still getting used to the size of this beast.
