January Experimenting

So I realise that in my zeal for posting about South America I have neglected to share some of my experiments for January! And since today is the 31st and also a Friday I thought I might give you a little, fresh off the lens teaser!

That's right ladies and gentlemen, I am now the proud owner of two more lenses! I live life by extremes - so the 100mm macro and the 10-22mm wide angle are two completely different but equally awesome additions to my humble collection!

So, I would like to share with you my latest experiment. Since being here I have always wanted to go down to Dampier at night and take photos of the lights. I finally managed to do this this week!

In half an hour I got one photo I was pleased with - even still it is a little soft. I need to do a bit of research on getting the most out of my lenses.  I used a tripod but found it very difficult to focus on the right place without moving the camera slightly as soon as I took my finger off the button. It's a pity I didn't have my remote with me.

Anyway, for my first attempt at industry lights, I didn't think it was too bad! With the Macro and all!

Happy Friday!
