Shoots
Taking Just One Lens
We went for a drive to Llanrwst in North Wales, recently. It’s a small town near to Betws-y-Coed, on the edges of the Snowdonia National Park. The River Clywd runs through the town, which was our main destination. It was a hot and sunny afternoon, so we thought that a bit of relaxing by the river would be a welcome way to spend some time.
I took the camera along with me but, since it was hot (and I didn’t intend to spend the time looking for pictures) I decided to just take my Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 lens, since it is the smallest and lightest of the lenses I own. It can be an interesting challenge to restrict yourself to a single, fixed focus lens, when out and about with the camera.
