A few weeks ago I took some pictures for my Church of some volunteers getting all of the Christmas decorations set up. Here are some of the shots from that to get in the Christmas spirit! I haven’t had much time to shoot anything besides family, so this is the newest pictures I have. Enjoy!
Today I’ll be looking at a lens with a classic focal length that has been widely accepted as a ‘normal’ lens. These types of lenses are generally referred to as the ‘nifty fifty’, and for good reason. Generally speaking, this type of lens can be very bright, small and have fantastic optical properties in a low to medium cost lens.

Today I just have a few things to show off. Earlier, I was able to get out on a bike and get 20 miles in. On the way, I stopped at a decommissioned railroad bridge over the Youghiogheny river that I’ve had my eye on for a while. I first saw this bridge when I first started to date my wife. We were tubing lazily down the river with friends and once we got to it, we got out of the river and onto the bridge to jump off. This was the first time I’ve actually jumped from a bridge for a woman, and I’d do it again in a heartbeat.
