Miramar Lake and the Sigma 10-20mm lens.

I have a folding bike, which is pictured in a previous post.  I used to ride around Miramar Lake quite a bit, I haven't done that in a while.  But when I did ride, I would sometimes bring my camera.  I figured if I wanted to improve my photography I should be ready for any opportunity where ever I was.  I bought a sigma 10-20mm which is primarily used for landscape photography and here are a couple of opportunities that I didn't let pass me by.

Favorite Subject Matter

What do I like?  Sneakers!  Maybe not as much as the real sneaker freaks out there.  But I've got boxes and boxes of them.  So of course they are a favorite subject for me.  Here is one of my favorite shots.  One day I will stand on a double-decker bus taking tour of London holding up the shoe and taking a picture as the we pass Big Ben.

Blogs

So I seem to be addicted to creating new blogs.  This one is for Aminus3.  I guess I thought I would try out a new blog, but that is dedicated to photography.  It's kind of like flickr but on a smaller scale (at least to me).  I started it off with a photo that was taken a year ago.  Oh well.

Here is the pic I used:

Classic images from the Philippines

There are the shots that are always seen when one goes to the Philippines. Here are mine.

Lanzones (If you can't have the fruit all the time, it takes on a legendary kind of reputation of what people miss from the homeland)
