Driving the Flies

Tuesdays The Boy has after-school trombone lessons on campus, giving me thirty minutes of uncommitted time. Camera time. I’ve been on another one-lens kick; you know, limit yourself to a single focal length.

This week it’s the 77mm f/1.8 on my K-7D.

Autumn here means rain, and when it rains, you get this wonderfully diffused light. Everything looks good, especially the fallen leaves, splashes of color in the splashing rain.

I love this lens. I’ve had it for years, a hold over from before I went to shooting wide.

Sometimes it’s good to return to an old friend, revisit old subjects and see if there’s anything left to see.

If you’re lucky, and ready, you find what you’re looking for.
