Heyo! So, for those who haven't been following my UK study abroad sweetness, check it. There's more links there. Anyways, this week's trip was Oxford. When we got there I realized that the "harmless" fall my 35L endured wasn't so harmless. It now refuses to focus beyond 10-15 feet. That includes manual focusing. Oy. Anyways, just having a 10 ft and under 35L and 135L forces you to be pretty dang creative on the compositions...

As always, C&C always appreciated and more on the blog (which by the way, is currently featured on wordpress.com's homepage!).

Enjoy!
