I think the pictures themselves aren't that interesting but I really like the post sunset sky though.

#3 is just awesome futu :) Too bad you couldn't get a shot of solely the sky. It would have made an awesome background haha. On the subject of awesome skies, the sky here in Stockholm was breath-taking yesterday! Unfortunately, I noticed it slightly too late to make anything out of it :( But I threw my shoes on and ran as fast as I could to "västerbron" (overlooking the city) with my tripod under my arm in hopes of getting a landscape shot for you, but more or less as soon as I got there the sky had faded :( Owells :p I got some sexy looking gray-sky shots atleast x'D (lol).

Holy crap! Where the hell did your friend get his lens from? I mean that's only 200 dollars!! :O
You lucky bastard :) jk

Well you are going to LOVE that lens when taking landscape photos ^^ but it kinda sucks for handheld night photos because of the lack of IS xD and that's the only bad thing I could say about it.

hmm I think the buildings kinda made this photo interesting but I am sure it would have been even better if there were a lake or river nearby as well lol.
I have seen some very beautiful sunsets over Stockholm during the summer and I am sure there will be plenty of opportunities to get some amazing sunset shots in the future :p
hmm maybe it's just me but I don't think you really need a tripod when taking sunset photos.

He have used it for a long time. That is why it is so cheap. But still. :)

Well. IS do not get the job done in the night. Get a tripod.... :santa:

:p IS does help when taking handheld night photos. Well even if I had a tripod I wouldn't bring it with me when taking night pictures of the downtown area because there are just too many weird people wandering around there. I mean I had two bums approaching me and asking me for "donations" when I took those photos -.-

Well. Not much vs tripod. Phhf. :D

Haha. It is one of my biggest fears, to meet someone creepy enough to talk to me while we at a dark location with no exit. xD

Well, perhaps not always but I never want to take the chance of me needing one and than not having one :P I've extremely shaky hands and have trouble taking anything below 1/60 without blurs so... I <3 my tripod x'D
