I'd keep the lens because it offers a lot of versatility. Save your penny's and get the 11-18 as well for wide angle landscapes. You should be pretty set after that. BTW- use that 18-200 for portraits and get some sweet background blur.
Didn't think about multiple exposures on a long exposure night shot but why not- its only time and battery life.
#2- yeah I wasn't real happy with it but I plan to be up there again by end of year at least once so I'll work on another version of this one.

The outdoor water shot is very nice too. Did you use flash or a reflector? Only nit pick is the...
Awesome to see more photographers posting there stuff. Love looking at all the talent and different styles here on Expo!!
Here are a couple more from my last shoot. I need to book some more paying gigs but the heat here in AZ sucks for portraits.
I ended up merging these two panos to get this one.
Won me a local contest so I was online, printed in the quarterly mag, $200 to a local camera shop, and a photo seminar.

My son is 12 and has cousins around the same age. They all do the one match or flint fires as well as carve their own weapons. They have made knives and even bow and...
I'm liking the Sequoia as well. I looked at getting one but opted for the truck over SUV. Was real close though. Would love to see future modifications done to the Sequoia!
