FOCAL LENGTH TO THE MAX

Last Sunday on our regular photowalk, a few of us turned up with long lenses just to try to get a different perspective on what we normally shoot.

Also, the Clipper Round the World yacht race is in Albany at the moment and we thought we might have been lucky to catch the leading yacht entering port but unfortunately things were running behind schedule and it wasn't due until later that afternoon.

As an alternative we went for a walk around the Albany port and found that the long lenses gave us some interesting results and opportunities to obtain images that were a little different than what we're used to seeing.

We only had a small group this time as many members were away so in the near future we'll do it again to give everyone a chance to see how they work at the longer focal lengths.

It may even be the subject of one of our fun competitions.
