My husband and I went to Panama City Beach this Friday to check on "our place". Friday was a beautiful day and Friday evening on the beach was beautiful as well. You can tell that Spring is on the way! Recently I have tried my hand at some night or late evening photography and I have found that I enjoy it. It is a bit of a challenge until you learn the principles behind it. As I stated in an earlier post, I have been frustrated with my photography work so I was wanting to do some fun shooting. I am very fortunate that my husband understands my creative nature and he gives me the freedom to be who I need to be. We wandered down to the beach about 6:00 Friday evening just as the sun was setting and I was able to capture some shots. I decided to change the lens on my camera and use an old 50 mm lens that I had not used in a while. I have become more accustomed to using my 18-200 lens. The 18-200 lens is a good lens; however, the 50 mm lens has an aperture of 1.8. Yes, I was able to shoot at very, very low light without loosing any details and/or also using a flash. This photo was taken through my husband's truck window.
I had forgotten how much I enjoyed using the 50 mm lens. Matter of fact, I believe that it will have a permanent place in my camera bag.
