WEEKEND RE-CAP
The weekend agenda consisted of this:
* Getting away
* Food
* Gatherings/Party's
* And, more of the above
I also had a chance to test out a few of my new lenses for my camera. I know some of you have asked what camera I use and currently I have a Nikon D60. I've been shooting a lot of my shots with the standard 18-55mm (52mm) lens and occasionally the 55-200mm as well. Both have been working just fine for quite awhile now, but I decided to step up the game a bit more with some new lenses. I shot the below beach scenery shots over at a place called 'Pebble Beach' located by nearby Monterey, CA to see the outcome. During this escape, I used both an Nikkor 85 mm telephoto lens and a wideangle 20mm lens. I utilized various manual and aperture settings for both. The first 2 pictures had the following settings set: 85mm lens: Aperture f/14; ISO 100; WB Cloudy; Matrix Metering. While the following were shot with the 20mm lens with the settings of: Aperture f/14; ISO 200; WB Cloudy and Sunny; Matrix Metering. All with manual focus enabled.
Circled back to the Bay Area to enjoy another case of good soul food at Home of Chicken and Waffles in downtown Oakland
And finally...ending a good long weekend celebrating the birthday of Ivy Leegue's own, Skuba in good ol' fog town Daly City
