What's the name of the cathedral?

It is Winchester Cathedral where Jane Austen was buried.

I've found that with the kit lenses, if there's enough depth of field and brightness, the photos can be quite sharp. I'm still using my Canon T2i (550D) camera with the 18-55mm IS lens. I used it yesterday with my Canon T7i (800D) camera. That one was attached with the 55-250mm STM lens. With both lenses for this year at the tulip farm I used shorter focal lengths and stopped down the lens, so that I could have everything reasonably sharp. I still look at my photos each week, to see what I can do to improve.

Agree. I found it is a very useful lens when light is good for randomly shooting around It is not very useful in door or in dark.

I compared this take with the one from 24mm. As far as sharpness is concerned, I don't see any difference. This one appeared a little bit better because the light was brighter.
