Ball of Light - Warm and Close Tonight.

www.balloflight.com.au

 

I was down the beach, back in summer, just trying a new lens (50 1.8) and the Ball of Light seemed to notice I was trying something new. It was so soft with me. Letting me try things. It is above about a foot of water here, which I know the ball of light struggles with, yet it just sat there, still as a sleeping baby (what you old fool) for me to experiment with.

 

Its amazing how you re-look at images you have from a while ago. Stuff that I thought was going to gather dust on my hard drive, is now going to be the biggest sellers. I used to look for massive bright colours. But people want to put softer stuff on their walls in big print (although I am sure the bright out there stuff will be popular.

 

Anyway, I have grown quite close to the ball of light. My wife suggests that it often reflects the moods I am in. I know this night at the beach was such a wonderful time. Warm, cool breeze, the 50 1.8 was great.

 

Have fun kids!
