Morning


The moon is going to hide behind the range, It's much closer to the tip of mountain light now.

It's been nicely cool morning today but I bet it's going to be hot by mid day.  

Have a nice day, everyone!

Cosmos


This was from few days before rain is starting.  A cosmos in the back yard whcih was swinging little in the light wind. 


We had some good amount of rain (well, too much in some area) and quite bit of wind (bit gusty) in last couple of days.  And it looks like continue few more...


Good part is lot cooler than before. 




  
A bit of gear geek talk here.

I picked up this old manual focus lens ( Olympus OM Zuiko 35mm F2.8 , if you must know) and play around.

It was looked sharp on the screen at the back of camera, but I cannot get really sharp photo from this particular lens if wide open.   So... I treat it as a soft focus lens.   Other people in the photography forum world has reporting same thing.  So maybe the Zuiko 35mm was not quite sharp as other focal length Zuiko in the series. Who knows? 

I still love it, if I remember what to expect.

Have fun shooting!

Bee on Sunflower


It's still quite hot to do anything under the sun in my standard, but those bees are busy correcting nectar.   I wonder they need a protection from sun like us...


PS. Getting feel of the OM Zuiko 100mm F2.8, whcih I just received a second hand copy, on my digital camera.
