While I was in Penticton BC, this summer I saw many beautiful scenes. This scene was one of my favourite and I just stumbled upon it. I was walking a long a very random path because I decided I wanted to park in a little further away from my destination so I could take in some more of the town. While walking I noticed the beautiful light shining into the trees. I ran over, found a good vantage point and waited for some one to cross the bridge. The first person had a dog, BONUS! These little decisions don’t always work out, but I’d say it did on this day :).
Camera: Canon 6D & 50mm 1.4 – Setting: f/16 – 1/100th – ISO 800
Thanks for stopping by, Rob
This is gorgeous! I have a Canon 50mm 1.8 and I really don’t use it too often, I’m not comfortable with it. I need to take it out as my ONLY lens for the day pop it on my 6D and just force myself to get creative with it. I have been told it’s a great lens for concert photography, but again I’m almost afraid of it. Maybe this weekend I’ll do just that, use it and blog so stay tuned…….. Deb
Thank you Deb! And YES please do that. The 50mm lens is SOOO GOOD! Putting it on and going out with only that lens is a great idea. In fact, I just did that my self last night! I knew the photo I wanted to shoot, but wasn’t sure if 50 was going to be the right length, but I trusted in the 50 and just took it (& nothing else) anyhow. I am happy to say I got a really cool picture and I will be posting that one tomorrow :). If your really accustom to a zoom, just remember, your legs can do the job pretty good 😉 When moving forward or back isn’t doing the trick you will get creative and find a good shot.
I’ll post when I use it this weekend
Looking forward too it! 🙂
I love this picture Rob especially because of the dog and dog walker! BC is so beautiful – I miss living there.
Diana xo
Thank you! Yes I also miss living in BC! Especially around February it really starts to hit home lol ;).
Nice shot! With my crop format sensor, I use my 35mm lens the say same. Just pop it on and go! Looking forward to more stuff from you-Shawn Pagels (ArtSEEguy)
