My First 50
I fondly remember the day well. It was January, cold, I was tired and worked but on a divine mission to get to the Westfield shopping centre in west London. I had had about 1 hour spare before I was to meet the girl.
We were off to Cornwall the next day, so I had to get it to be able to play with it over the weekend. Bags bumbling off both shoulders through rush hour, tubes and stations. If I was going to get this, the universe was definitely making me work to the last minute for it. Of course I did. It then became my newest and most update bit of kit at the time. Back then I was still finding my feet in my new venture whilst juggling a few other things so I had stuck with my Canon 400D for at least 7 years by then, It stayed with me on and off or a total of 8-9 years total.
So there I was in Cornwall, with the girl, my 400D and my new nifty fifty. We had a wicked time in the rain, sleet and a fresh breeze. Created some remarkable images that we loved and even more so now, three years later once I finally got them to look how I was satisfied with them!
The 50mm levelled me up, in 2013 and even now in 2017 it’s been amazing. I used to threat so much that my camera body wasn’t good enough, I Just needed to see things through a different lens.
