Tell us your favorite lens and how you use it.
On my Nikon D60, I had a lot of fun with the Tamron 10-17mm. The wide angles generated an altogether new perspective that is rarely seen. With a wide angle lens, you'll never be stuck for ideas. I also like the Sigma 35mm f1.4 lens as it is very sharp! I use any lens i can get my hands on for my portraits but those fashion shots hit different with a wide-angle lens.

Work ethic, commitment, and consistency pay off.
