Testing macro capability of my "new" lens. It still amazes me how good it is. Compact, sturdy, sharp straight from f/2.8 and for a very reasonable price. Also, do you like the bokeh? I do!
I wish it was a little wider, but you can always stitch a few vertical photos to capture a wide angle landscape! All in all, a very versatile little lens. Stays on my camera almost all the time :-)

Day trip to Wrest Park in the village of Silsoe near Luton.
Wrest Park is a 19th century pseudo-French mansion built in 1834-39, to designs by its owner the Thomas de Grey, 2nd Earl de Grey, an amateur architect, the first president of the Royal Institute of British Architects.
Wrest Park has an early eighteenth-century garden which was probably originally laid out for Henry Grey, 1st Duke of Kent and then modified by Lancelot "Capability" Brown in a more informal landscape style.
It is now in the care of English Heritage.
The second visit to Croome, the National Trust property / estate in over 5 years.
Croome Court is a mid-18th-century Neo-Palladian mansion surrounded by extensive landscaped parkland at Croome D'Abitot, near Pershore in south Worcestershire, England. The mansion and park were designed by Lancelot "Capability" Brown for the 6th Earl of Coventry, and were Brown's first landscape design and first major architectural project. Some of the mansion's rooms were designed by Robert Adam.
The mansion house is owned by Croome Heritage Trust, and is leased to the National Trust which operates it as a tourist attraction. The National Trust owns the surrounding parkland, which is also open to the public.
Croome Court is a Grade I listed building.

Stowe landscape garden is most notably the work of two people: Lord Cobham and his nephew, Earl Temple. At one time this family was once richer than the king. The Temple family spent a fortune creating and extending the garden to further their political ambitions. Stowe was 'Capability' Brown's first major commission. Stowe reached its social peak in 1822 when Richard Temple was created 1st Duke of Buckingham, but by this time his and his ancestors extravagence had taken the family to the brink of financial ruin with debts of more than £1 million. The 2nd Duke fled and the scandel rocked the English aristocracy.
Stowe was rescued in 1922, when it was turned into a school.

Compton Verney's Chapel was built in 1772 by Lancelot 'Capability' Brown to replace the medieval church that stood by the lake nearby. It has not been used for services since the Verney family left in 1921.
Inside the rectangular room has plaster decoration influenced by Robert Adam's work. The main items of interest are the Verney monuments including a large centrally placed tomb with effigies of Sir Richard & wife by Nicholas Stone c1630. However given the long term disuse of the building most of the monuments have been boxed in for protection. They will remain hidden until funding is found to restore and re-open the chapel as part of the visitor attraction here,
The 16th century glass once contained here was sold in the 1920s and is now in New York. Nobody seems to know what's become of the brasses. They may still be there under all the clutter that the building's mothballed state has generated.
Compton Verney House stands in a beautiful setting overlooking a lake. The grounds were landscaped by Capability Brown who also built the chapel.
The House itself is largely the work of Robert Adam, who in the 1760s who added extra ranges to an existing west range of 1714,
From the early 20th century the house passed through various owners, and after requisitioning in World War II was never lived in again, and thus remained in a state of disuse, slowly falling apart, until rescued and converted into a highly successful art gallery in the 1990s.

With excellent electrical properties, heat dissipation capability, electromagnetic shielding, high dielectric strength and resistance to bending, aluminum substrates are widely used in many industries such as high-power LED lighting, power supplies, TV backlighting, automotive, computer, air conditioning inverter modules, avionics, telecommunications, medical and audio. When it comes to cell phone cameras which are the most commonly used in our daily life, aluminum PCBs are of great importance. As a metal core PCB (MCPCB), aluminum PCB has many similarities with FR4 PCB in terms of manufacturing process or technology, including thick copper foil etching, aluminum surface etching protection, aluminum board manufacturing and solder resist film printing.
Since the 1970s, aluminum PCBs were first used in power amplification hybrid ICs and have become popular. Due to the development of LED industry in recent years, the application and trend of them are increasingly widespread. Therefore, in order to better utilize them in the product and industry, it is necessary to understand some important characteristics of the PCBs.
Structure of Aluminum PCB
In terms of the structure, it truly shows the structure of aluminum CCL consisting of copper foil, dielectric layer, aluminum base and aluminum base film (which is optional).
(1) Copper foil layer
The aluminum CCL has the same copper foil layer as the ordinary one. The circuit layer requires large current carrying capacity, which is the reason for changing thicker copper circuits from 1 ounce to 10 ounces. The back of the copper foil must be chemically oxidized while the surface should be zinc-plated and brass-plated to improve the peel strength.
(2) Dielectric layer
The dielectric layer consists of a layer of thermally conductive dielectric material with low thermal resistance and a thickness of from 50μm to 200μm, which is the core technology of aluminum CCL. It excels in resistance of heat and aging and can withstand mechanical and thermal stress.
(3) Aluminum base
The aluminum base is actually the aluminum substrate material and is the support component. It requires a high thermal conductivity to be suitable for general mechanical engineering, such as drilling, punching and cutting.
(4) Aluminum base film
The aluminum base film serves to protect the the surface from scratches and etchants. The films can be classified as normal one (below 120°C) and high-temperature-resistant one (250°C). The latter type can meet the requirements of HASL as a surface finishment.
Aluminum PCB performance
(1) Heat dissipation
Compared to normal FR4 PCBs, the aluminum PCBs perform better and more quickly in heat dissipation. Take the FR4 PCB and the aluminum PCB with the same thickness of 1.5mm as an example. FR4 PCBs have a thermal resistance of from 20°C/W to 22°C/W while aluminum PCBs have it of from 1°C/W to 2°C/W, which proves the feature again.
(2) Thermal expansion
The thermal expansion and contraction are common properties of substances but have different coefficients. Because of the excellence in heat dissipation of the aluminum PCBs, the problems on the thermal expansion and contraction on the board surface will be significantly reduced to increase the durability and reliability of the entire equipment and electronic devices. This kind of advantages can be particularly suitable for the thermal expansion and shrinkage problems of surface mount technology (SMT).
(3) Dimensional stability
The aluminum PCBs have significantly stable dimensions. Their dimensions will only change about 2.5% to 3.0% when they are heated from 30 ℃ to 140 ℃ or even 150 ℃.
(4) Other performance
a. Applicability to power device SMT.
b. Effective thermal expansion of circuit design.
c. Helpful to reduce operating temperature, improve product power density and reliability, and extend the shelf life of products.
d. Helpful to reduce the size of the product, hardware and assembly costs.
e. Easy replacement of fragile ceramic substrates with better insulation performance and mechanical durability.

"Sheffield Park Garden is an informal landscape garden five miles east of Haywards Heath, in East Sussex, England. It was originally laid out in the 18th century by Capability Brown, and further developed in the early years of the 20th century by its then owner, Arthur Gilstrap Soames. It is now owned by the National Trust. The gardens originally formed part of the estate of the adjacent Sheffield Park House, a gothic country house, which is still in private ownership. It was also firstly owned by the West Family and later by the Soames family until in 1925 the estate was sold by Arthur Granville Soames, who had inherited it from his childless uncle, Arthur Gilstrap Soames."

Sheffield Park Garden is an informal landscape garden five miles east of Haywards Heath, in East Sussex, England. It was originally laid out in the 18th century by Capability Brown, and further developed in the early years of the 20th century's by its then owner, Arthur Gilstrap Soames. It is now owned by the National Trust.
History[edit]
The gardens originally formed part of the estate of the adjacent Sheffield Park House, a gothic country house, which is still in private ownership. It was also firstly owned by the West Family and later by the Soames family until in 1925 the estate was sold by Arthur Granville Soames, who had inherited it from his childless uncle, Arthur Gilstrap Soames.
Sheffield Park as an estate is mentioned in the Domesday Book. In August 1538, Thomas Howard, 3rd Duke of Norfolk, entertained Henry VIII here. By 1700, the Deer Park had been partially formalised by Lord De La Warr who planted avenues of trees radiating from the house and cleared areas to establish lawns. In the late 1700s, James Wyatt remodelled the house in the fashionable Gothic style and Capability Brown was commissioned to landscape the garden. The original four lakes form the centrepiece. Humphry Repton followed Brown in 1789–1790. In 1796, the estate was sold to John Holroyd, created Baron Sheffield in 1781. It is particularly noted for its plantings of trees selected for autumn colour, including many Black Tupelos.
Rhododendron in Sheffield Park Garden
By 1885, an arboretum was being established, consisting of both exotic and native trees. After Arthur Gilstrap Soames purchased the estate in 1910, he continued large-scale planting. During World War II the house and garden became the headquarters for a Canadian armoured division, and Nissen huts were sited in the garden and woods. The estate was split up and sold in lots in 1953. The National Trust purchased approximately 40 ha in 1954, now up to 80 ha with subsequent additions. It is home to the National Collection of Ghent azaleas.
In 1876 the third Earl of Sheffield laid out a cricket pitch. It was used on 12 May 1884 for the first cricket match between England and Australia.[1] The Australian team won by an innings and 6 runs

Terrace Gardens
The south-facing Terrace Gardens in front of the Georgian House were commissioned by the 3rd Marquess to remind him of his time in Italy.
The upper terrace, designed by Sir Robert Smirke, was completed in 1818 and the lower terrace, designed by George Kennedy, was added in 1851.
The upper and lower terraces are separated by ornamental stone balustrades decorated with urns which, during the summer months, overflow with colourful flowers.
The distinctive leaning yews were planted in 1900, and over the years they have grown towards the sun creating a unique design.
The terrace gardens provide a view of the magnificent parkland, created by Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown.
