I had such a fun day hanging with my Niece and Nephew Zach and Gracie. In order to keep the kids busy, we decided to pop outside and play in the newly blossoming Blue Bonnets. Here are some pictures of the kids playing around. I have decided once a photographer, always a photographer, I can never go anywhere with out the camera in hand!
I had fun playing around with my Nifty Fifty lens and also my 70-200 2.8 massive lens!
Ceiling Fan Stare!
Prime Time! I decided to Walk the Streets of Casco Viejo, panama; using only a 50mm 1.8 Prime Lens and an 85mm 1.8 Prime Lens. Prime lens street photography is actually hard, because you have to get close to your subject. I got caught snapping a couple of times. Casco Viejo, is an incredible place where old Spanish/French influence some together to create some amazing architecture. There is a mix between the very rich and the very poor. Some buildings should be condemned, but you will see families living out of these boarded up houses; living in anything that is available.
Here are some shots from my explorations today. I am used to hiding behind a 70-200 2.8 or a 24-70 2.8 Lens, but today, I decided to just try my primes out and get over that horrible awkward feeling of taking a strangers picture!
Its hard to get up to someone with a Prime 50mm Lens. I am no longer able to hide behind my Zoom!
I was Caught Red Handed!
I gave this guy some change, so I felt better about taking his picture!
And of course the Famous "Welcome to Panama Man" He is always singing and Playing!
