This week when we went to a local pond/wetland area where we usually get some fun bird photos we found a maze of trails going around the wetlands. It took us only two years of visits before we found these. Whoops!
Anyways, we went early one morning and I decided to not take the 100-400 lens and instead put my Canon 50mm f1.4 lens on with the idea of challenging myself to find different things to photograph. At first I was feeling pretty uninspired, but was plenty surprised when I finally noticed the sun shining through and creating some fun halos and outlines of the surrounding greenery. Here are three of my shots (with my still very limited editing skills).
Overall, I was really pleased with how these photos turned out. And being that I am only now really learning how to use Lightroom, I’m sure over time my edits will change. Next time I’m looking at taking the 70-200mm f2.8 Canon lens but who knows after how these turned out I may take the 50mm again.
Thanks for visiting!
