tulips
I dug these out last weekend as I planted my Mother's Day flowers. They were sure pretty while they lasted! I've been a terrible camera slacker the last while. Time to get practicing again.
I love the lens because it goes all the way to a 1.8 aperture. I've learned a lot comparing f-stops and balancing it with shutter speed since it gives a greater range. It's also nice to use a fixed lens and get used to positioning myself rather than getting lazy with the zoom. That's a pretty un-technical answer, but hopefully it helps. And I also love that it's cheap. :)
Ohhh I like this picture. So what are the benefits of you 50mm, why do you like it?
