Dear Magga, I was quite pleased with the photos as it was bitterly cold outside and the new lens did well this time. After going through all the settings I found the culprit and with just one click of the button the difference is amazing.
It is an extremely complicated lens and took some time to work it out, so I was glad that the picture of the water droplets dropping of the Acer came out well. It has warmed up here 3C or 36F which is better than the well below freezing we were having. In Oxford it was -16C the other night. That is cold to wake up to and not nice at all. I know that is nothing to what you get in your beautiful Country but it gave the people up there a shock.
Give that beautiful animal of yours a good walk and a hug.
Keep warm and safe.
Neil.
