Project 2012 - Week 6


 Day 36 - We took a family walk at Forest Beach this afternoon and I found this little boat that is in need of alot of TLC.     
 Day 37 -  Testing out my Canon 85mm 1.8 lens --- I had been dying to get a prime lens for the longest time and so I bought this one over a year ago. When I first got the lens I discovered that I wasn't a fan of the fixed focal length --- it takes a lot to get use to! So sadly it's been packed away since I got it but I thought I would give it another try today -  after all the reviews on this lens where very positive. Anyways, I've now decided that I might like this lens after all. It's hard to get the focus right though so I want to try it out on an older subject who doesn't move around as much as my 4 year old.

PS - I was also trying out my new Gary Fong LightSphere Diffuser ... love it (but boy is it hard to attached to my flash)!   
 Day 38 - From the parking lot of the store --- I always notice this abandoned house. It's an eye sore for sure but as a photographer I think it's pretty cool!
 Day 39 - I'm still trying to figure out if I like my 85 mm 1.8 lens ... I'm getting used to the fixed focal length but I'm just not sure about focusing this lens. I was aiming my focus points on her eyes and yet the hat is sharper then her eyes ...
 Day 40 -  I came across this piece of drift wood today while taking a walk on the beach
 Day 41 - Okay ... I'm finally coming around on liking my 85mm Canon Lens. Today's victim -my beautiful 9 year old daughter.     
Day 42 - Today was a Pj's kind of day!
