Spring Details

I had the chance to walk around yesterday and take photos while my car got fixed. Normally I drive around and look for photos, but it was nice out and I needed new tires, so it worked out. It is good to slow down and really notice things happening around me. I like how spring is so subtle, and the changes of light and nature aren't noticeable unless you really look for them.

Here are a few photos of spring details.

Buds on bushes

A branch in the evening light

Buds on trees!

The ice receding from a pond

A walking path in a park. I realize these are evergreens, so they don't really count for spring, but I took this photo because of the light green grass and the light on the tree trunks. It seems like a path through an enchanted forest .... something like that.

Buds again

And more buds!

The photos with a shallow depth of field I photographed with my Canon 28-70mm lens at f2.8. This lens also shoots macro, which is what most of these photos are. Macro drops the backgrounds, since my lens only opens up to f2.8.

I also blogged about spring for work!
