Default New Lens - EF-S 10-22

Last tuesday I bought an UWA, the EF-S 10-22 from Canon. It's more expensive than the Sigma 10-20 and Tokina 12-24, but also better IMHO. And why settle for less?

I sold my Peleng 8mm fisheye for it, and already had more fun with this lens. Some pics:

Thanks a lot! ops:

I still have to give cars a try. My head is full of ideas, but I'm hardly involved with cars nowadays.

Beautiful pics. Did the color come like that straight off the lens or was it enhanced a bit in Photoshop?

They look like HDR images to me.
No camera / lens combination has a wide enough dynamic range to capture highlights and shadows like that.

Great photos

The lens is great, but a polarizer and Photoshop did help me.

Thanks!

Here it is in 1600, not the cleanest image ever, but ok:

No HDR, but partial Layer Masks with Curves, sort of like an afterthought Gradual ND Filter. Polarizer does help to capture more detail in de clouds etc.
