— “proudly” present my first analog shot …

Another journey into the world of manual focus — this time with the TTArtisan 100mm f/2.8 Macro X2 lens on the Canon EOS R7. Handheld shot, using natural light.
Aperture f/5.6, shutter speed 1/320 s.
The star: likely Hycleus polymorphus, exploring a flower dusted with pollen — like a child smeared with biscuits. A second beetle peeks from the top right, but neither was in the mood for a double portrait. 😉
Technical challenges:
Even the lightest breeze can nudge the subject out of focus.
Nature is always moving — insects don’t pose for long.
Distance estimation must be done instantly — no time for refocus.
Aperture selection is crucial to balance sharpness and dreamy blur.
Despite all this, the experience was excellent. The lens feels solid in hand, responds well to light, manual settings are intuitive, and the images are sharp. In tandem with the R7, this manual lens has become my go-to companion for walks in nature.
“So the problem is not so much to see what nobody has yet seen, as to think what nobody has yet thought concerning that which everybody sees.”
― Arthur Schopenhauer
Todays challenge on Photochallenge.org was Camera.
So I got out my old Pentax camera and took this shot, which I kind of like
I enjoyed using the film Camera, but with Digitals it is so much better for me can play around and experiment without the cost of getting film developed
Really enjoying this daily challenge and it makes me think of and get shots that would never have crossed my mind other wise
Hope everyone has had a good weekend
