New lens and santa hats!

I bought a new lens recently. I try to get the most for my money and that doesn't always mean I get canon!

I recently purchased a 24mm f/1.8, and gasp, it's not a canon. I do extensive research on new gear before I purchase and well this little gem had some spectacular reviews. I think a lot of people are stuck on "labels" and forget there are some pretty amazing pieces of glass out there.


I took a few test shots.

Low lit area...should have used a tripod.

My favorite shot from tonight! My precious Ms. Mabel wearing a Santa Hat with a beard.


As a photographer, I feel that it's good to never stop learning different skills within my field. I never learned how to do panoramic photography and I've been wanting to learn. I used my new lens to shoot in my front yard and my living room.

 


It's a start at least. I never realized how simple it is to do! I'm going to go out in nature and shoot some. I'm wanting to incorporate panoramic style photos for weddings and family portraits.

That's all for now!
