And so, I finally owned a wide-angle lens! Thanks to my beloved dad who's always so supportive of whatever I love. 6 years into this, and I'm still loving every bit of it.

 See the difference? Top photo is Tamron 17mm widest, below is Sigma 10mm widest, all else the same.
I just can't wait to bring it around with me!

 

Like what the seller says, photography is a poison, once you allow yourself to indulge, it just gets deeper and deeper. But I guess it all boils down to what you really want and balancing this out with what you actually need. 

It's hard to explain this kind of love to people who aren't really into this. I mean to let people understand the relative cost of getting A lens that probably cost more than average compact cameras is already a tough task to begin with. Ha, but it's okay, there's always people who can understand as well. 

My eyes can't lie, the fact that they only light up upon seeing something they like is just something uncontrollable. Similarly, when they meet someone they don't fancy, they simply don't engage. That's why saying so much are all bullshit, if you can't already tell from your eyes, then don't bother taking in the words. Ha, I don't know what I'm trying to say. Just blabbering cos I got locked out of my job application account for 30mins! -.- I need better systems to remember all my passwords, oh god.
