RE: FIVE INSECTS IN PHOTOGRAPHS FROM 2009

in Insects Of The World3 years ago (edited)

Hehehee ... ah, talking about memories ... that's cool ... I bought the macro lens in 2008, I think. Or 2009. Before that, I had some fun photographing the seashore with long exposures using the same basic 50mm 1.8 ... but not much else. I used the camera mostly to shoot apartments because I had a small tourist agency business back then. 🙂 And I didn't give a shit about apartments, real estate, and the non - adventurous tourism, so no, it wasn't much fun. Now, one may ask - why did I do that tourism-related stuff? Well, that's something that everybody does here. It's some kind of default in this seaside area. And after art school, artsy stuff didn't get me far. One thing that I always gave tourism credit for though, is that here where I live it's a seasonal activity, so I had time for minding my own, non - commercial business and cultivating the visual arts for free.
