Cape Cod Winter??

_DSC1934

It was a totally beautiful weekend – but it felt more like the middle of March then the end of January.  Even though I thoroughly enjoyed the warm weather it did feel a bit weird.

I used my wide angle (12-24mm) lens which I hadn’t shot with for quite some time. One of the characteristics of the lens is that you can get right up close to a foreground object and at the same time  get tremendous depth of field – everything in focus from from to back of the image.

Of course you can also get a very wide almost panorama like view.

Took these shots for my friend Carol who has opened my eyes to subjects I wouldn’t have chosen. I converted the vertical to b+w and the horizontal was taken from the same spot. Just experimenting with the lens.

So lucky – we had  wonderful sunrises and equally wonderful sunsets.
