Lakeside photos


Went out to the lake on Sunday morning for a walk and managed to get a few shots of s0me ducks in flight; more of these in ny Flickr album.

It's so difficult getting the lens to focus on the someinthg moving so quickly. Maybe it would be easier getting some L glass; Canon's top of range L series of lenses with faster focussing and superior image quality. Thing is they're not cheap (at least a couple of grand) so generaly they're reserved for people who are serious about their photography or people who want to make a proper living out of it.

That's not saying that you can't make a living out of photography without an L series lens or lens of equal quality, it's just that they're built with better optics, mechanics and are usually more durable; ready for photographers shooting in extreme and demanding environments.

Why do I always have to pick expensive hobbies???

  1. A great picture, you've really captured a powerful moment in nature there, something we wouldn't be able to focus on without technology (and a good eye)
