Few weeks ago I received my first dslr - wonderful K100D. Right after I had a chance to go for a short journey to France and test it. Below you can find my first shots taken during that trip - in Poland, Germany and France. All taken with K100D and Sigma 18-200 F3.5-6.3 DC, handheld.
Critics and suggestions are welcome.

Wow, What can I say these are great shots. I like all of then. Focus and framing are spot on, colors are crisp and clear. Very, Very nice shots.

There is no cure for LBA except more lenses.
 
Hi Jacub, very good shots, I do like what the K100d produces. The only critique I have is that I would have liked to have seen the base of the cathedral in the last shot but otherwise very good.

They are all very good but the first one is my favourite.

The only thing I noticed was the perspective misalignment in the last image.

If you look at the towers to the left and to the right it looks like they are leaning toward each other which I am pretty sure they don't really do.

If your PP software can correct perspective errors you should try to make the towers align with the edges of the frame.

This is one of my pet grieves while others might not be bothered by this so don't change it if you like it the way it is.

All look very well (in this reduced size) - but just a small idea - with 18-200 zooms most people find f/8-f/11 to be the sharpest setting ... and the EXIF says you already are in 'aperture priority' at some of them ...
 
Buildings do lean like that if you're viewing from the bottom. The top is farther way from you than the bottom so it looks smaller. It's curved lines that indicate lens errors but these look straight to me.

I believe it is an old wellknown perspective error (railroad tracks for instance) but in this respect it does not matter if my eyes produces it or the lens. It is still an perpective error and not real. You decide if correction is needed.

If it was not considered an error we would not have tilt & shift lenses. Again some are bothered with this error and others are not.

Now you are talking about lens distortion I guess which is totally different but I agree. I see no signs of lens distorsion here.
