We've had some snow here today (Takumar 17mm):
Wonderful! I really love the wide shots with that lens. There is so much clarity in your photos. If it weren't in this group I would think it was a new model Pentax. Were the stones part of a structure at some time? I like that it's a landscape, action shot, and close up of the rocks all in one. I almost didn't see the person on the rocks until I realized the person standing was taking a photo of something and I wanted to see what it was. It's like a story.
Here are some I took the last few days. My fiance's vehicle is in the shop and I've been taking some shots on my way home from dropping her off the last few days.
This one I took today in a snow storm. The snow was almost a white out at times, and it looks like camera noise in the photo!
Not sure if this is worth sharing, but I really liked the contrast of the hydrant against the snow.
I saw this woodpecker the first day I took my fiance to work, but I didn't have my camera on me. I couldn't believe I found him again on my way home another day. I drove by, saw him, turned around, parked the Jeep and when I got out...nothing. Then I heard him! I followed the sound and this is the only (in-focus) shot I got before he flew off. I did get some of him in flight but only one wing was in focus. He did not like having his photograph taken!
A little fire-wood shack I always liked. Unlike most of them the wood here actually does look like it stays dry. Ha!
I've driven by this tree many times and every time I think to myself "what a beautiful tree, I would love to take a photo of it." Well now I rarely leave the house without my K10D and so the time finally came.
