New Lens: Sigma 8mm f/3.5 Fisheye

Friday, February 15th, 2008

Woohoo! I just received the newest addition to my photographic arsenal in the mail today. I ran out of sunlight pretty soon after I got home from work, so I was not able to take many shots. I ran outside right after opening it to take the obligatory “straight up” shot in my backyard, shown below cropped to a rectangle.

I am going to Pennsylvania tomorrow and I plan on taking some photos up there. I will be back Saturday afternoon, hopefully with some photos to show. Have a good weekend!

Newfoundland Barn in Snow

Friday, January 25th, 2008

This photo is another shot from my drive on New Years Eve. My grandfather and I have taken photos of this barn on many occasions because of it’s rustic look and perfect placement on the curving road. The barn is only a 10 minute drive from my grandfather’s house. I was happy to get a nice blue sky in the background.

Timbertops: New Years Eve 2

The second stop of our morning drive in the snow, this birch tree has been in several of my photos in the past. I opted for a more unusual composition by focusing in on the bottom half.
