Playing with my new Canon 50mm f/1.8 lens.
The dark wintery days are difficult for me. I find myself wanting to take a nap by late morning. It's the lack of light. I don't function very well without it.
We had a windstorm here on the island yesterday and it was so dark and stormy that the streetlights in front of my house actually came on. Hibernation time for me. I parked myself in my favorite chair for the afternoon and watched out the window as the wind blew just emptied trash cans down the street. I went out later to retrieve said trash can and found that it's completely dissappeared! I was able the lid but the can is gone!

I bought a new lens for my camera as a birthday gift to myself. I've been playing around with it and taking some photos in natural light, (when there is some that is....). I so admire those who are creative with a camera. I struggle. I read everything I can find on the subject and I do practice but not nearly enough. I never think to take my camera with me when I go somewhere. I think that's probably because I'm not good at all at taking photos of people. I just don't know how to get those candid shots. I need to practice more you say........ yes I do.
