Nice shots, Nathan. The lens looks like it performs pretty well.

I didn't know that Tamron still existed! I thought that they went out of 
business aeons ago. Has someone bought the name? I recall their lenses 
from the 70s and 80s, which you could get for pretty much any of the 
major mounts including LST, Pentax etc (but not M as far as I recall). 
The teles that I had at the time on my Minoltas probably didn't give as 
good images as these, but then optics has progressed apace in the interim.

I tested it in my favourite environment for lens test, the center of Alicante. The cats were photographed while out cycling, which activity also provided a gorgeous sunrise along the beach.
