Ohhh, this week has been so busy! But good busy. I’m so thankful that I have work to do, even though there is a lot of it that must get done! I took a quick break today to play around with my new lens – the 50mm f1.8! It was one of those purchases that I decided I just needed to go for. It will be amazing to have it in MN, especially is it does exceptionally well in low light. I’m not a photographer by title, but I am so enjoying learning about my camera and about photography. I suppose a lot of freelance graphic designers get into photography – both mediums can be very closely connected!
I’m also starting to get things together for our trip! I can’t even say how exciting it is to be able to actually write a list like this. I can’t wait until we leave!
I spent a lot of time this week working on some hand lettered logos. I am not a hand letterer by any means – I’m just starting to learn the art of it – but I really am enjoying the process. My family and I are very much into collecting and using fountain pens, so beautiful writing is something I’ve always loved. (And let me tell you, there’s nothing like writing with real ink.)
Congrats on your new lens! I can’t wait to see the photos that you will take with it. Oh, and your hand lettering is gorgeous!
Thanks, Emily! Yeah, those first photos were taken with my new lens – I’m having so much fun with it. =) It’s definitely a great lens for anyone to have in their bag!
