Experiment #2
I decided to experiment with using my telescope as a lens. The telescope has a diameter of 90mm and a focal length of 1250mm. It is a catadioptric (mirror lens) meaning it is short, light and relatively easy to carry. Like all mirror lenses, it is soft on focus and muted in colours which is a compromise, however it makes for interesting post-edits. I went back to the river (Bulimba side) and photographed a crane over at Newstead.
I was hoping for the orange sunset sky, but it was noticeable absent today.
None of the images has been cropped.
