Sigma 17-50mm Sample Shots

On my previous rant related to "<span class="breadcrumb-item"]Didn't get the 24-105 nor the 17-55", I want now to share some photos that I was able to take over the weekend. Generally, I'm happy on the tele end's sharpness (open wide) but I'm feeling quirky on the wide end (open wide) but I wasn't able to test if stopping down would improve this. So I have to test it on a different occasion when I try on landscapes perhaps. [:)]


Photos converted from RAW with DPP and slightly adjusted levels in GIMP.
