I have, for a variety of reasons, not really been practising much in the way of photography these last few months. I dragged myself off to Chew Valley Lake the other day, where nothing I had planned came to fruition.
Luckily I had brought my manual Canon FD 50MM 1:3.5 Macro lens with me on a whim and that made up for the lack of creativity. The lens itself isn’t the most super sharp, stuck as it is on extenders and a FD:XF converter, but I love the mood and character of the pictures it produces.
Anyway, enough waffle: macro photos of dew on a feather, a couple of damselflies and lichen. And a photo of a tufted duck - not shot with the macro lens.
