Nice shots, Robert. I have to agree with the others and I love my 10-22, too. What a Alienyst and Justin don't seem to realize is that the DOF automatically grows to enormous depths with an extremely short focal length. That's why compact digital cameras with a short zoom fail to produce even the faintest touch of OOF back- or foreground (except maybe in macro mode or fully zoomed to the tele end with a huge difference in distance between lens and subject and lens and fore- or background respectively). The Fuji 602 I used before I got my 20D was the equivalent of a 35-210 but the focal length of the lens was something like a 6 to 36 and it was only at the full tele end that you could make a little use of DOF as a creative element in your pictures. Now with the 10-22 it's similar, i.e. you can hardly get OOF elements in your picture, even when the lens is wide open, BECAUSE the short focal length doesn't allow for anything but huge DOF.
Sorry if I sound preachy here, was just wondering if people realize that the DOF is practically out of the photographer's control when it comes to using a 10mm lens.
Cheers,

Absolutely great photo Robert! WOW! The perspective is one thing, but the shot is another! Very nice work! The clarity throughout the DoF is amazing. |

This is great! I love the colors and sharpness and the viewpoint makes for an interesting shot from a mundane subject. Well done! |

Wonderful lighting, that's what stands out to me the most about this photo. Also, great DOF. Great job. |
