What a beautiful shot of mom and baby, Jeffrey!! Just adorable!! I do like my Sigma 150-500mm lens. I also have a Canon 100-400mmL lens but the front glass is scratched and I need to have it repaired. I like the reach of the Sigma and I've been happy with the clarity. I've used it on those recent bird shots you see in my gallery so you can judge for yourself. #10576706
