a new lens has arrived for my friend the camera.
new perspective.
a new way for my eye to notice details.
new focus and d.o.f.
geekiness, anew.
happiness is.
~ thank you dad & ellen!
p.s. i recently shot a series of photos of dry summer grasses in various lights and angles. if you have time for a nature slideshow, feel free to check them out here.
Ooh, you're framing such gorgeous images with your brand new lens...
I'm very happy for you.
(and also a teeny bit jealous)

I am soo jealous...before cameras became digital, i took a course in photography using black and white manual camera and even developed my own film: digital is a whole other animal (no pun intended)but so much cheaper to develop!!

I'm getting a new lens but I have to wait until my birthday next month. But I know it is in the box the postman delivered to my husband this morning.
I like the summer grasses series.

I love my 100mm but I am re-learning my 50mm and I am having a lot of fun. I know why you dig the 60mm: it rocks! That's my next purchase whenever Santa comes around next :)
