A Photo Geeks ups and downs through words and images.
Though our area has seen it’s share of rain. When it clears. The signs that Spring is right around the corner are becoming evident. Our first trip to the beach and more walks around the courtyard have offered many returns. While I admit to not being much of a nature photographer. It’s given me a chance to use my Canon 100 – 400 millimeter lens and practice using maual focus mode.Looking forward to allergy season, extreme heat, and historic humidity. Until then.
If there’s an aspect of photography that’s given me the most challenging time. It’s definitely manual focus. Yet, as I seek to progress and improve as a photographer. I’ve been setting my sights on setting my lens to manual focus to shed myself off my lazy habits. This morning I ventured out beyond my patio, without my tripod, to test my skills and photograph my least interesting subject, flower beds. Being the ADHD, “Chop, chop. Time’s a wastin.” knucklehead I am. I have to learn to be patient and find my focus. Manual focus has never been easy for me. But it’s a challenge worth taking. Knowing that learning new things and finding ways to improve is pretty rewarding. No matter what level you’re currently on. Improvement is always attainable.
