Back in the Lake District and so far (touch wood) the weather is holding out. Took a gentle 12 mile walk yesterday and took over 400 photos giving my 180mm macro a good tryout.

Kernuak:
I passed through the lakes last week on the way back from Scotland, but only stopped over one night, overlooking Ullswater. I did see the mountains briefly, before it started chucking it down again. At least there wasn't any snow like in Scotland though :P. It's good to see someone using a telephoto (even if it is a macro :P) for landscapes. I often use my 135, but I still rarely force myself to use the 300 for anything other than wildlife.

itsnotmeyouknow:
I use both my 100L macro and my 180 macro for landscapes.  I also use the long end of the 70 - 200 IS 2.8L  and the 28 - 300L from time to time.  It's good to get a different perspective sometimes.  I do love the sharpness and contrast and colour rendition of macro lenses.  I frequently use a 120mm macro with my Pentax 645D.

All shot with a 10-22mm not a macro, but interesting choice!

Kernuak:
This is probably the best of the ones I took on Ullswater in October.
