Tranquil time out #57

In a park that has practically no other people.

With wonderful weather.

And in possession of a paperback.

Tokyo park

Perfect?

    Wonderful depth of field in that photo. What camera gear did you use?

      Cheers Andy. I have a D300, and took this with my much favoured Nikkor 85mm f/1.4. An absolutely fantastic lens.

        Is that your normal setup for your photos? Sounds like a wonderful lens, and being 85mm means you can keep your distance too.

          I also use a 35mm and 80-200mm, but the 85mm gets by far the most use. Intimate enough, but like you say, allows me to keep a certain distance. And above all else, it produces lovely images.

          I got mine used and it was still pricey, but worth every penny. And then some to be honest.

    Perfect, except for the grass stains on the white clothing…

    A wonderful shot Lee, really nice 🙂 And considering I’m looking at clouds here it was a great start to my Saturday 🙂

      Thanks Jonathan! Been very lucky with the weather here of late, and as I’m well aware of how it can be in your part of the world, I’m happy I could help just a little bit.
