Learning to stop down - a photo on Flickriver

            🌴Newport Beach, August 2023
📷Fujifilm X-T3 in Provia simulation pp’ed in LR
CONTAX Zeiss Planar 50/1.4 (1970s)
📝When you have a fast lens in hand, it’s a crime not to shoot it wide open. We all do that, perhaps a little too much. Many times I feel that I need to grow up by forcing myself to stop a lens down. Some say using zone focus with a lens stopped down is THE proper way for street photography. I can’t argue against that. Most pictures I took on that day were at f/8. I’ve got to say it felt so good not to worry about focusing at all 😊
