365-194 All seriousness aside

Normally I don’t like to take the “I ate this” type of food shots for my 365, but there’s always an exception. Who can resist a cool creamy treat on a summer day? This is a banana ice with vanilla custard from Rita’s. Photo shot with Pentax K20D and DA17-70. I took this wide open at f4.0 to show how well this lens performs in such situations.

But to make up for this typical 365 photo I’ll throw in a few shots around an old building in town. These are more my speed. All taken with my Super-Takumar 50mm. As I mentioned the other day, I am still trying out Nik Color Efex so I used that for processing these shots, with the exception of the b&w leaves which were done with Nik Silver Efex.

    Beautiful compositional style. Very effective use of contrast and perspective. Well done !
