Compass

I was bored installing some display drivers for Windows and had a rummage in my draw to see if there was anything interesting in there. I found this old compass and decided to take a picture to try out my new Tamron 70-300mm lens.

 

People said to me when I was considering buying this lens, "Why put such a cheap lens on your camera?" My intention was to get a cheap lens for occasional shooting. But I really like this! I'm not sure a lens costing £600 more would have given a result 6x better, it might have. This is good enough for me though :)
