Using my Nikkor 14-24 with a massive polarizer over the lens, I managed to get a bit of a long exposure.

Using the "Big Stopper" I managed to slow my shutter speed down enough to snap some long exposures during Mid-day.

Images of the past 2 months!

in ,

Here are a couple of images over the past couple of months. I have had so much fun shooting with a couple of different cameras (Nikon D600, Fujifilm Xe-1, Nikon D700, Nikon D3) and the best thing is I keep finding myself moving towards shooting more with Prime lenses. Getting back to the basics in shooting! It just kinda starts to un complicate things.  Of course my 70-200mm 2.8 will always be a major work horse for me, but I just can't break away from the love of a f1.8 or a f1.4. Hopefully more to come in this new year!
