life through a macro lens

Hey Y’all,

“A smile is a curve that sets everything straight.”

~ Phyllis Diller

wooow, this is my first fully manual shot!! Manual exposure + manual focus!!! Ok-ok I know this isn’t a big deal for the most of you, but for me it’s a great improvement. LOL The bad thing is that it was not taken with my lovely Nikon cam but with a Pentax I-don’t-even-remember-what-kind-of-cam. K20D, I got it from a friend to try a new prime lens. Thanks Taz! The result looks good, right? I’ve never thought that taking macro shots is such a great fun. I’ve already ordered some new rings from E-Bay that I can put onto my cam and with this 58 mm lens I’ll be able to do such miracles. :)  Can’t wait the time to receive them. I have so many ideas to shoot. This is my third week in London… the weather is sometimes very depressing, I’ll need to find out something to overcome this horrible feeling. Just ‘cos I so much like hanging outside and capture the wonders of nature. It keeps me alive every day, brightens my day, especially when I think things are going along smoothly and then all of a sudden life throws me a curve ball.

There must be something going wrong with the engine of my blog. I need to figure out why the photos in my media library are multiply uploaded. I remember having uploaded them only once, or twice if they are in my portfolio, too.  That part looks like a crash rather disaster too… hmm {Sigh…sigh} I have no time to update it properly. Need to ckeck it with my lil bro. He’s a super hero in solving such crazy bugs. ;)

Regarding bad weather, one more thought has just come to my mind. God we have palm trees here in the gardens, the weather can’t be that bad!! So I do believe it’ll be much better and I’ll get used to it very soon, otherwise I’ll move to Spain…hahhaa. (Photo was taken in Stevenage, 50 mins ride from London to the North…not that it would be really important lol just for me for future reference…or should I tag it…yeah maybe, now done.)

I hope your Wednesday is going great!

Hugs,

Lolo
