Cloudy day, dim light, not much to shoot, there, a fence…

I know I know, it is a bit childish to make pictures of the eye of my dog following the acquisition of a new macro lens.

It was pouring rain yesterday and could not go out to test my new toy, had to find victims inside.

I really like the lens:

Done! Now I can do macro photography with my Nikon D90, I bought yesterday a new lens, the Sigma 105mm EX DG Macro 2.8.

It will take me some time to tame the beast, I am convince this will open the door to new photographic opportunities.

Below, 2 pictures of easter cactus flowers.

These shots were taken without a tripod, using high ISO (1600).

I kind of killed 2 birds with 1 stone. With its 105mm focal lenght, this lens is excellent for shooting protrait, as shown here with Suzanne, my beautiful sister in-law.

It was special to be there, the Saint-Patrick parade in Montreal, superb day for photography.

A nice week-end to everyone!

François

Gentleman, let me spoil you a little with a small compilation of nice ladies who attended the Saint-Patrick parade in downtown Montreal.

This is the proof that the girls of Quebec are simply the most beautiful….

Another magnificent day, must avoid the shade it is a bit nippy.

Lots of people as usual, beer is flowing, the smell of illegal subtances fills the air.

The green color is everywhere.

Lots of green.

We had a taste of folklore.

A bit of technology.

And a hint of politic.

More to follow…

Not my favorite bird, while waiting for the more apealing birds to come back from the south, it is a good practice.
