Wednesday Walk

in #wednesdaywalk7 years ago

It's time for another #WednesdayWalk, a tag created by my friend @tattoodjay to encourage people to get out of their home or office, take a short walk, and share their experience in pictures. Like last week, I set out from home. And, like last week, I had my 50 mm prime lens and kept the aperture "wide open" at f/1.8...maybe I should start a new tag - #wideopenwednesday!

But, this week I wasn't chasing Pokemon, I was going to get breakfast. I started out looking down at this fallen leaf:

1/3200 sec, f/1.8, ISO 100, focal length 50.0 mm

Then, I moved my gaze up to appreciate these flowers:

1/6400 sec, f/1.8, ISO 100, focal length 50.0 mm

Perhaps inspired by my friends @pixelfan and @melinda010100 who have encouraged us to "look up" in an effort to raise the price of crypto, I took some more #lookingup pictures.

After eating breakfast at Panera, nothing as healthy as this soup though, I headed home.

1/80 sec, f/1.8, ISO 320, focal length 50.0 mm

This shot is a macro of a bud on a tree branch that had the reflected sun behind it, coming off the headlamp of a car in the Target parking lot. i thought it made a cool halo:

That's all for this week. I hope you enjoyed the walk!

Thank you eSteem :-)

What an awesome selection of shots, and it reminds me I have not been using my nifty 50 Lens, which is either for two reasons its sitting on a shelf with my other camera stuff including my lense for my APC camera, or I never got around to buying one and I must check if that is the scale as on my Pentax that was ny favorite lens to use

Thanks Jay. I bought this as a portrait lens and found out I suck at taking portraits. LOL

Thats what I bought mine for as well, I am thinking of buying a 90mm Macro lens soon which can also serve as a portrait lense, but is versatile for other uses, I know I wont use it uch for portraits as I suck at them as well
