2021 - How Many Worlds III


Using a long lens with very shallow depth of field (this is the Sigma 150/2.8 wide open), especially when focusing near, gives you a unique view into a world that you normally don’t see: a world of mystery, of fantasy, and the fascinating thing is, that it changes completely every time you change focus.

You look at a thin slice of reality, and everything in front or behind vanishes in a mysterious veil.

By the way: the RAW Converter of the Day is Lightroom 4.1 RC2 🙂

As yesterday and as in “561 – How Many Worlds”, the Song of the Day is “How Many Worlds” from Brian Eno’s 2006 album “Another Day On Earth”. Hear in on YouTube.

I really appreciate this lens' bokeh. Nice and smooth and creamy. Is this shot with your Nikon D300?

Sorry for the late answer. No, it's the OM-D with a Sigma 150/2.8 Macro for Nikon.
