My New Toy

Johanna got me the first lens for my Canon EOS 30D (other than the kit lens) for Christmas.

It is good for shooting portraits and under low light conditions. But so far I have not managed to get any volunteers for portraits.

So far I'm amazed with the sharpness and the ability to take shots under low light conditions without needing a tripod.

A swan at Albert Park late during sunset


More swans at Albert Park late during sunset. The focus is unfortunately not on the swans.


Rare scene at the usually busy Queens Road. Amazing that this photo can be taken without needing a tripod.
