After some saving, we purchased the AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G on Labor Day. It instantly became my favorite lens. It's amazing for low-lighting situations. I've really enjoyed shooting indoors - which is good, considering all the rain that's keeping us inside. It's an ideal lens for full-body portraits too - especially if you like minimal distortion and nice, blurry backgrounds. The last three posts were shot with this lens exclusively, and I especially like how the last one turned out. Of course, I can't get as close as I could when using the AF-S DX Zoom-NIKKOR 55-200mm f/4-5.6G ED, which came with our camera. I haven't missed that much, though.

Do you have a favorite lens? Or do you enjoy shooting with a simpler point-and-shoot camera? (I did for years)! My mom takes amazing photos on her phone - I don't know how she does it!

    My dad takes the most amazing photos with his i-Phone too. Actually, I think you'd really like his work, though the style is very different from your own (https://instagram.com/craig.satterlee/). I used to enjoy shooting with lens but mostly let The Boy do the shooting now- so lazy of me!

    These photos are great- those feet sure look cozy!

    Lovely photography! Your fall is looking very cozy indeed. At some point I will be investing in a DSLR, but for right now I've got a point and shoot that I can usually get some pretty good shots out of.

    I love this photo set. Lovely, warm, cozy - such wistful feelings of autumn! I use the same lens and I love it too. It's a beautiful lens, so sharp and fast. I use it exclusively now. It's suffered a lot of abuse from me. I've dropped my camera numerous times but it still functions fine (in my mind, anyway!).

    That last shot is a beaut! I really wish I could say I had a nice snazzy camera but right now I just use my phone or old point and shoot. One day I want to get a Canon, though.

    Beautiful photos! I really love that last shot :D My favorites have to be 35mm and 50mm lenses!

    Autumn photos, best photos. Your lens captured the pure essence and atmosphere of my favourite season. That last pumpkin pic is really something - love it!
