I just went and checked out this meme - there are lots of neat benches here but the last thing I need is another obsession to photograph lol. Have a great week.

This is my first dedicated lens. This year our budget was a little tight so I asked for the 50 mm f1.8 instead of the f1.4 knowing Santa would be more likely to oblige with the price tag of the 1.8 -under $100. I had borrowed some lenses to experiment with, and wow...what a difference a lens makes. Next I think I'll go for a macro lens but an image stabilized zoom would be nice too. :)<br /><br />Good for you for shooting in manual - you will learn so much! I decided to learn to push my camera to its limits before upgrading...plus get some lenses first.<br /><br />I guess you won't ask me any photography questions after this! I obviously love to 'talk' about it. :)Suburban Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16135537886717771317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3912659204940192592.post-34913723565612769922009-12-30T05:44:51.440-05:002009-12-30T05:44:51.440-05:00I love benches, have been posting them for a while...I love benches, have been posting them for a while.

Ever since I joined Malyss and the other bench-watchers at RuneE's "Bench on Friday" meme (at Visual Norway), I find myself on the lookout for interesting benches in Jerusalem. <br /><br />This is a quiet picture. Lovely snow adds to the scene so much.<br />It is nice to roam around cemeteries, especially the old ones. Yes, usually you have it all to yourself.Dinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03461925401870320466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3912659204940192592.post-57146080422282568272009-12-30T00:28:07.510-05:002009-12-30T00:28:07.510-05:00It's surprising how many benches there are whe...It's surprising how many benches there are when you start noticing them. I think they make really interesting pictures.<br />I like all the elements of this picture, the cemetery in the background and the snow.
