Using what you got.

When I got my camera it came with a 18-55mm lens. But I had been drooling over some fancy lenses from the get go. So, I bought them and stuffed my stock lens in the camera bag so that it wouldn't embarrass me.
I saw my poor stock lens and felt bad for it. So I went out and spent my Sunday with my 18-55 and here are the results.

My car is always ready to go.
