The TAMRON 18-270mm F/3.5-6.3 Di II VC PZD (Model B008) is quite a controversial lens. I just had to get one to find out for myself what this lens is all about. Follow my blog as I use this lens on a daily basis and discover for yourself if this lens is indeed a diamond in the rough, or if it simply just another average, try to do it all, kit level lens.

Tug

I've always had a little fascination with tug boats. Usually these tugs are operating where I cannot get close enough to them but I was lucky enough the other day.

Although the Tamron performed beautifully, allowing multiple shots of the two tugs in action (only one shown in this blog)  at different zoom levels, the normal photos were too busy due to the background.

Oh well, since I've recently installed the Beta version of Photoshop CS6, I thought it best to play a bit with the new Oil Painting effects in CS6. Below the results for your enjoyment.(click the photos to view them in full size)
