Carmel Lilies
Ahh September was a busy month, and I got a little behind.
When that happens I like to come back and put things in these
spaces for those of you who come looking. (Oh, and if you haven't
found it yet, there is a link in the upper right corner to a
calendar that displays thumbnails of the photos.)
This is a different view on the lilies in
the photo of the day from April 22.
I usually carry a number of lenses with me, especially in a
beautiful place like Carmel. And, I rarely take one shot
from one angle. I have learned from taking photos with my best friend
to explore as many angles as possible.

Walking in Carmel
I thought about taking a photo like this before I found the specific
subject. My fish-eye lens is an interesting tool, but you have to
think a little more about the composition when using it.
Since it is so wide compared to a "normal" lens or your normal
point of view, it makes everything look further away.
My idea was to put flowers in the foreground with a larger subject
behind them. Since the lens can make a larger subject less interesting
by including too much. You have nothing to focus on then.
The lens was less than an inch from the flower at the bottom of the photo.
