    I forced myself to use the Sigma 105 a little. Bought it, had it repaired but hardly use it.
    These're some pictures of the new ship of the Holland America Line, for the second time in Amsterdam

    A group of swans swimming with the ship.

    After the ship nearly had passed, the swans returned.

    The images aren't sprankling. I don't know who th blame, the lens or the weather.

    In this image I changed the picture control to vivid in pp.

    That first shot is awesome George!

    Its a great contrast between nature and man, and they're both pulling in opposite directions!

    In the first shot they go the same direction.

    I was on the ferryboat and when I saw the swans swimming to that ship coming straight to me. So I had to change position since I had a prime lens. Only home I did see the direction of the swans swimming.

    Holland America Line used to be a Dutch shipping company. Now it's American. The swan has been a symbol for the Royal Dutch Airlines in the 90's. They joined with Air France.

    The first shot looks like the start of a race.
