Another couple of shots from our walk in the woods around Fort Victoria, Yarmouth. The light wasn't always great but the 50mm f1.2 makes the most of what's available when you open it up.

Another little photo series from a family walk in the woods around Fort Victoria, Yarmouth this past weekend. The light wasn't always great (again) but the 50mm f1.2 makes the most of what's available when you open it up, and the focusing with it on the 6D is noticeable better than on the 7D, you can shoot at wider apertures with more more confidence that it will be where you want it.

I've got a whole new batch of shots just waiting to be looked at / edited / posted, but first I need to share a few more from some recent days out with William that I just can't bear to leave gathering pixel dust in the archives.
This is from a walk in the woods around Fort Victoria, Yarmouth. The light wasn't always great but the 50mm f1.2 makes the most of what's available when you open it up.

Another day, another autumnal walk with the family. This time in the woods around Fort Victoria, Yarmouth. The light wasn't always great but the 50mm f1.2 makes the most of what's available when you open it up.
Ten shots making up todays little photo walk, hope you like them (there's even a rare appearance by me in one of them :)
