Paris Hilton & me
One photographer’s story of when he saw Paris Hilton. Her bodyguards stopped him taking a photo. I presume the incident didn’t happen in public? He should have used a telephoto lens!
The second bouncer stops me via a mild bodycheck, which I return in kind to him.

Sigma 18-200 lens has arrived!

Much much later.. if you’d like to see how the lens performs, take a look at the Sigma 18-200 category on my photoblog!
