Very nice, thanks for sharing
#1 clouds burned a bit liao, I think. Me unsure whether UV filter or ND is needed, or if ISO or aperture needs tweaking.
I still prefer #2 over #3, best of the lot - cropping off more sky, leaving a little bit of the cloud allows more focus on the horizon as well as the foreground, which reminds me of those foreign (non-SEA) locations :D
Love the slipper shot, but mebbe lower angle ...

i like pic no 2 and the last one~~nice~1st one macam overexposed? over pped?

[ShaolinTiger]

Pic #2 is just great, sure is Sigma 10-20mm poison for anyone that doesn't have one!

Will be taking my 10-20mm for a good run this weekend, first time I'll get to really test it.

Personal perfer Pic 2 &3 nice shot!!
But i think should be crop a bit the sky maybe shot in horizontal way will have better composition for these type of scene....

Anyway thanks for sharing

for those looking for a wide angle lens, here's a summary of a "shootout" between Nikkor/Tamron/Tokina/Sigma.

Exposure on 2 is perfect. The others are a tad over. Beautiful scenes. Maybe you can organise a SA group shoot to Koh Samui. :)

[nonblood]

haha..thx every 1..ya should make SA visit to SM.. :p pic 1 is over exposed cos its my 1st shot that i took when i arrived so din noticed the exposure goes so wrong cos sigma lense make my nikon exposure bit rong...its advise to over expose +1 or +0.7 for those who gonna try this lense...

for shot 2 n 3, u guys r righ...i should crop the sky out a lil...hehe...thx...i make a mistake again...only shot from 1 angle...thx guys for ur support...

P/s : ST u will love the colour bro...i was amazed by this lense...

[ShaolinTiger]

Yah I have tested it a bit, I owned this lens for almost a year haha, but no place to shoot landscape yet, just used for a bit of portrait and stuff.

A silly question.... at 10mm till b4 20mm, this lens has the fish eye effect? Just wondering ;)

[nonblood]

this is 1 of the photo i tried to make it looks like fish eye...well fish eye only works at some range only not always...
