New lens, new perspective

I got my new lens recently, and have been spending some quality time with the toy. Its a Canon 55-250mm IS. Also known as a telezoom.

The lens is widely known as a budget tele lens, and is usually a stepping stone for the famed L series Canon lenses.

Here are a few trial pics.

Any closer, and the astronauts footprints would have been visible...

Same view @250mm. Note the circled buildings in the previous pic...

On one of those bright sunny days, when there is no haze to muck it up.

On a DARK rainy day

And, the Kid.
