Today I tried out my new Tamron 11 - 18 mm lens and I'm very pleased with the results so far. The sharpness is definitely superior to that of the Canon 18 - 55 mm lens which I previously used for landscape and architecture shots. That thing is a razor blade. Even at moderate aperture settings (F/9 for instance) the DOF is great and the sharpness is good near the edges of the image, too. I'm looking forward to testing how suitable it is for infrared photography... As soon as the trees are a bit greener than they are now.
Landscape Photography Feature
It has been a long time since my last art feature, so I decided to put one together. There are many amazingly good landscape photographers on DA, and I hope you will enjoy the works I selected as much as I do. Here they are:

Dark Feature
Maybe it is because winter has arrived where I live, cutting short the daylight. Maybe it is because recent events have shown once again how hard our species is struggling with itself. Anyay, today I felt like putting together a photography feature focusing on darkness -- both in the literal and in the figurative sense.
Photography Feature: Underappreciated Artists
I decided to do an art feature to promote the works of a few people whose photography deserves more attention in my opinion. I selected these people by browsing the galleries and picking out interesting photographs. This can be tedious, given that some people upload every crappy shot they take with their phone, and others are incapable of selecting an appropriate category. As a consequence, many dA users rely on groups, which basically have the function of a filter, and do not browse the galleries any more. But as you can see below, there's still some good stuff to be found, if you're willing to invest a bit of time.

Feature: Dreams and Nightmares Contest
Recently the conceptual photography group theCAMERaLUCIDA (https://www.deviantart.com/thecameralucida) held a contest with the theme "Dreams and Nightmares". I volunteered to feature the winners, and since I made second place, I'm in the somewhat awkward position to feature myself. These are the three winning entries:
FIRST PLACE
"Doublecross Death" by xBassxHarmingx (https://www.deviantart.com/xbassxharmingx)
SECOND PLACE
"Visitors Between Waking and Dreaming" by myself
THIRD PLACE
"Time to Wake Up" by ElyneNoir (https://www.deviantart.com/elynenoir)
Thanks for taking a look. If you like what you see, feel free to check out the galleries of these artists.

Bin schon auf ein paar nette Aufnahmen gespannt! Ist sicher ein Quantensprung vom Kit-Objektiv auf das Tamron
