    This is gorgeous Brain. I love the wonderful cottony effect of the water and great colors. One thing is for sure the 50mm is a very versatile lens.

    Ok, I must admit.. Back in 4th grade I used to write it as "Brain" just to annoy my teacher..

    Mrs. Harvey, I still think you suck! LOL

I have become so use to the zooms and standing in one spot and adjusting with the zoom that I found it refreshing to have to move up and back the way I did for years to frame my images. Feel free to post some of your resent 50mm shots here.

    Thanks Frog...Between the two white flowers, which one should I delete?

    Re: 50mm Walk About
    That's a personal taste decision. If they were mine I'd delete the first and keep the second. I think the exposure is a bit better in that one.

    Here's a couple of mine. First is an old shot from Philmont boy scout camp, 1989, shot with a Pentax Spotmatic and scanned from the film, which I recently found in my parents' basement. Second is one I shot around Christmas 2007.

    Both worthy contribution to this thread. Nice to have you posting hope you show us more of your work. I think it's high time that pull the 50 back out and take another walk, I'm falling behind.
