New lens

A little trip to the forest to try out a new lens, kindly lended to me by my photography 'sensei' : the Sony FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM lens (mounted on a Sony a7II camera for the occasion). 
 As I usually use my long-loved 50mm F1.8 lens or - less frequently - a 90mm F2.8 macro lens on my APSC a6000 camera, this new lens was a nice discovery: I am not used to taking wide and no-blur landscape pictures! I really enjoyed playing with this lens, though in the end I don't think it is a type of photos that I will really practice often in the future :-)

Bois de Boulogne

A little stroll in the Bois de Boulogne - nature is slowly starting to wake up from its winter sleep, thanks to the warmer sun rays :-)

Colorful

Missing so much the beautiful Spring flowers, that seing those (unfortunately not wild) colorful flowers in a garden made me quite happy!

Winter garden

A cute garden (frequent walk place of mine) full of twisted trees, wild bushes, and even  some shy flowers :-)

Night lights

A stroll in the streets at night - so many lights.. Not even a chance to spot the stars in the sky :-(

Branches

A beautiful contrast between those dark, tangled, twisted branches against the setting-sun sky :-)
