Just recently got the Sigma 10-20mm and would like some advice in using it. I already found out that my polarizer cuts off the corners at 10mm. Here is an image I took yesterday


While the results are okay I'm looking for things to do when using WA that will make a difference. Thanks for suggestions.

The biggest thing is to figure out how close you can get it to be sharp (this will be closer than the close focus distance) and use that to have a dynamic foreground subject against the background.

Low angles...close foreground subjects...

Point your camera down severely...put your camera on the ground, etc...

A WA lens can do some really fun things if you let your mind go and look for the unique POV. Have fun! :-)
