Coast BIF
Lens: Sigma 400mm Camera: K5 ISO: 100 Aperture: F8

Normally I find this sort of shot boring, but its another story when you take that photo

I was at the location for other photos shoot and while I waited I snapped these off using an old SIgma 400mm Non-APO manual focus lens. For an old lens its not the sharpest tool in the shed, but $150 I think it does a pretty good job.





I'm finding myself manual focusing more than not.

I think they are both excellent shots, they tend to have a 3D effect to them.

Excellent job regardless of price! These type of shots are always great when you take them yourself!
