Meeting G'ama and G'ampa at the Park

For my birthday last week, I got a new lens for my camera (50mm f1.8).  I'm loving it! It makes for much faster and sharper picture-taking. Yeah, I have to back up quite a bit to get it to focus on closer subjects, but I can deal with that.  Outside in natural light, the pictures are beautiful!

I brought it to a nearby park where we met up with Jason's parents at the playground.

These are pictures from a few weeks ago using the kit lens that came with my camera.  Not bad, but just as a comparison...

Yes, you can say it... all three of my guys have gorgeous eyes!
 

"Flying" with G'ama
Okay, so maybe I overused the ginormous aperture, and I need to learn to focus a little better on moving targets... but hey, I'm still learning :)
