Sunset on the Esplanade

I waited until dinner time to avoid the Saturday crowds. Ended up with some nice golden hour light.

Thank you! I wish I could have included more of the flare but I decided to frame out the walkway due to all the distracting walkers.

I’m loving the 16-80. It is definitely not as sharp as the 18-55 if you pixel peep but being able to hand hold at the slower shutter speeds and having that extra room on both ends of the zoom is really great. I took a light trails shot, hand held for 6 seconds that was close to being decent. I’ll post it later.

It may not be as sharp but the contrast, color saturation is far superior. Way, Way better.

I will have to do a one to one comparison of jpeg and raw files under more neutral conditions and see if there’s a discernible difference. These I made some fairly big exposure and other adjustments to the raw files to bring up the shadows and bring down the highlights due to the time of day so it’s hard to tell.

I noticed it immediately, I just ordered the lens because of it.
