First outing with Tamron 17-50 f/2.8. london/river

Guys
Just got my Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8 yesterday so took it along the river for a hour or two after work.
Im really new to wide shooting, not really used the kit lens much so normally only go to 28mm but i really enjoyed it. plus itwas a nice evening to be out.
Just wanted to share a few snaps. still have to get to grips with the extra distortion WA brings. Never really needed to fix it before so some of the shots look a bit "wonky"

Dave - For someone who hasn't used wide angle before you seem to have got the hang of it OK & some great captures there

Thanks paul
Ive taken these shots before with my other lens's (i live close to the river) but as i said ive only really gone down to 28mm. i do have a few taken with a friends 20mm but i found that too wide at the time. but now i have the zoom range i can see im going to like using it.
Shame the summers fast dissapearing. off to Wales at the end of the month with the kids so wanted to get some practice in.
