    Default Iconic

    I was in Manhatten for a short business trip. I did manage to get a few shots. While I am a total country girl I do enjoy visiting big cities. I also got to go to B&H photo and bought a new sigma lens. Walking around I spied this and simply had to take it.

    Very nicely composed, and love the detail Bambi.
    On another note, which lens did you get???????
    Reality is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there!

    Very well done, I like the shot. And going to New York for B&H photo is almost worth it in itself.

    Thanks HBG- I bought the Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8-4.5 DC OS HSM. I wanted something to replace by kit lens and this seems like a great little lens for the inbetween stuff
