Making the Most of Our View

The View from our dining room window.

Since we moved in 6 years ago we have had a fantastic view.  As you can see our fears have finally come true, someone is developing the rundown (and short) building behind us.  For a short time our view has improved, but it will soon merely be the wall of a building.  So while the view is still here we are taking full advantage.

Tree Monster

When I was taking a photography course last spring one of the field trips was to Queen Elizabeth Park.  One of the trees really jumped out at me as something interesting.  I love the grin on the face.

I can’t wait to really get to know my new lens.  An EX Sigma 105 mm 1:2.8.  Let the creativity roll.
