…sweetie-pie – just enjoying the simple life at lunch hour……

Last night I dreamt about lenses all night long!:)

So I did it.  Went out this morning to acquire a 35mm lens.  At the counter asked how much I would get as a trade in for one of my DX lenses that I never use any more.  Quite a sum, so decided to drive all the way back to my place, picked up the lens and then all the way back to Henry’s.  Basically the morning and early afternoon.  But it was so worth it!  I went shopping for a new lens, and didn’t spend a cent on it!  And I love it.  This is a shot of sweetie-pie at lunch. Taken at F3.5, ISO 400, taken in the shade at 1PM, no adjustment in photoshop to exposure or curves. Just a bit of warming up of the colors.  This lens has a very short focusing distance, so I can get really close to sweetie-pie if I want to, using the autofocus.  Though I often manual focus my shots.  Anyhow, I am very pleased with the lens, good images and value, and very affordable.

  1. This is a reat photo! I have to believe that it wasn’t all because of the new lense, I think it has a lot to do with the person behind the camara… I am not a good picture taker, mine come out ok, but nothing like this! I am a big dog lover and have two dogs of my own, Zeus and Lucky. They are so funny, loving, and snuggly! I love them with all of my heart and soul! My name is Melissa Crowley and I am on a mission to save my favorite dog! I have started a blog for my Rottweiler Zeus called Saving Zeus. He has a rare genetic disorder and we are trying to raise funds for the medical tests and treatment that he desperately needs. Also on my blog, I have funny stories and really cute photos of both of my boys. If you would like to make a donation or share our blog to help us save Zeus, or would just like a laugh after reading a funny story, visit my page. Since I am just getting started on my blog, there will be many more stories to come so check back every once in a while!
