Remnants of the holidays
Jan, 16
The holidays are great -but soon reality comes again and I find myself picking through the images of the season past.
It suffices to say I got a new lens for Christmas (50 mm f:1.8) and was having a great time using it. All but one of the pictures here was taken with it.
I had a bunch of fun shooting our train round the Christmas tree.
For a while I tried to get a nice long blur of the train’s light and then freeze it with bit of flash. I’m not sure I ever really succeeded but I got this far.
I love the limited depth of field I can get with the 50 mm and the nicely round lights in the background. The hard part was getting my face behind the camera that close to the floor.
Legos… what did we ever do before they were invented?
I hope you had a wonderful Christmas season and are now quite recovered. Now, I’m looking forward to the rest of winter and spring that will shortly follow.
