It might be difficult to see in an image this size but the detail in all parts of this image is astounding. The lens is actually great for indoor use, say churches or museums.

Another flower shot and it's the detail in this one that I find impressive. I must admit I haven't been using this one often enough. I think it takes time to get to know a lens, the more you use it the better you know the lens, the better your images get.

I would just like show what this little lens is capable of. I took it out to the local park because I knew that the flowers were in bloom at that time. The lens can give you a great perspective on things, it is very sharp and contrast is very good. Worth every penny.

This si the last in this series though I do have a lot more of these. One thing to remember, if you don't see a good composition when taking in the larger picture, move in close and get thos shrter focal length lenses on the camera. Go for detail and I think you will have a great time.

What I was missing here was a ladder to get higher. I'm sure there were a lot more images I could have made from a different angle. Some photographers never leave the house without a ladder. I think my wife would have something to say if I started that.

This abandoned boat had been on the beach for some time. When the tide was out, you could walk around the boat enabling you to work it. i took many images here and must have spend more than an hour just going around the boat. I also did it in both directions. It's amazing what you miss when only doing this in one direction. Just the same really a going for a walk, you tend to see what's in front and to the sides. How many people look behind them also. Totally different. I've not got into the habit or always looking behind me when I'm out and about. Oh yes, don't forget to look up and down aswell.

Not a lot to say about these images really, I just want to show what's possible with this lens. One thing I have noticed about the Olympus cameras though, I find it easier to manual focus ont he E-PL1 than on the E-P2 or E-P3. That is why I tend to use this camera more than others.

Sure I could have taken these images with a longer focal length but I just prefer to do it this was. i seem to be able to compose better when I'm close up.

This guy was really cool. Just kept coming back like he wanted his photo taken, and I just kept taking them and just picked the best once I got home again.
