Orem Orchard Photos

It's a goat on a donkey! The little goat just hops on and off the donkey like nothing. It's pretty darn funny.

Found an orchard in the middle of Orem today. I met a nice family and they let me shoot around their house. These spring colors are just amazing out here and I've never had a chance just to shoot them with no pressure to publish. I know the tilt-shift might be getting a little gimmicky, but I'm trying to learn how/when to use it most effectively.

New Toy: Tilt Shift Lens

Just got a 24mm f3.5 tilt-shift lens. I got yesterday but was so busy with last minute school stuff that I couldn't play with it. Here's what I did around school today. This is the Tanner Building at BYU.

Bloom

I had to get out and enjoy the spring bloom. This is the first time I've shot flowers up close like this. It was kind of fun! I used my 135mm f2.0 on my 7D. Everything was shot wide open in Raw mode. These will make great desktop backgrounds (I need more of my own). Let me know if you'd like some sized for your computer.
