Wisteria's Scrap Book [Photography]

[[Desolate Divine]]

So I have been taking a lot of photos recently! Unfortunately, they are all for youth events. On the plus side, I am getting better and more confident at taking shots with people. On the negative side, I can't show 99% of those shots here for legal reasons.

Apollo Bay

Spoiler:

For my dads 50th Birthday, we went away to Apollo Bay. I was only there for three days, but got a few shots.

This was technically at home. My family were at Apollo Bay, but I came out one morning and saw this guy. My dad loves the King Parrot's that we get in our backyard so I got a snap of him.


This is the view from the house we stayed at. Also the first good shot I got with my polarizing filter!


Whilst the colours aren't too great, I like the view. This beach was where my stepbrother planned on bodyboarding. Before we got there. Turned out to be way too dangerous for that...


We stopped at a little general store for lunch, and out the window I noticed the birds, so got a couple of shots with my zoom lens.


This is close to being one of my favorites. I hate how out of focus it is, but love the way the light hits the boardwalk!


This was in our rental house, and I had a bit of fun with it...



This is my grandpa's dog Maxx (yes it is spelt like that...)


Seeing as the day before my idea was ignored and the place we went to sucked, and this place was on the way home, we stopped at Sheoak Falls in Lorne, where I had gone a few months earlier. It was cool seeing it in summer with it mostly dried up, as opposed to crossing water in spring. My family complained about the hike most of the way. Weak...

New Lens

Spoiler:

So yesterday I shelled out $180 (which isn't too much for a lens) and bought a new lens. The 40mm one I bought in Janurary wasn't cutting it in low light and I wasn't a fan of it. So I got this one (which was actually cheaper) to use. I am keen to put it to the test at Youth Group, as that's when I need it's low light capabilities. Anyway, here are some test shots.


So this is my dog that lives with my nanna. Spud. He is nearly ten. He usually doesn't like the camera.




You guys know I wear glasses sometimes right?


Old Doggo.




My brother keeps stealing my hoodie. It is one of my church's ones so I told him I'd get him one if he'd come to one of our Young Adults gatherings, that I know he'll like. He just doesn't know it yet.


So this is my Grandad's old piano. Before he died, he hadn't played much for a while, due to his Parkinson's Disease. I play it most times when I visit Grandma, though it is badly out of tune.
