yesterday was a 3K swim and today a 40 mile bike ride. so this whole global warming thing...anytime now, it is mid april and 40 degrees, i mean seriously. i'm out of new movies to watch on the computrainer and i just want to be outside. the ride today was great, averaged 2omph and was flying the last 15 minutes, HR averaged 135.
i'm just about finished planning my trip to southeast asia. today i made one more trip to target to get all of the medications and other sundry stuff that i will need on the trip on the other half of the world. did you know that they made mosquito repellent with 100% DEET? i thought that high of a concentration would just melt off the skin. needless to say i did not opt for that version. the 30% will work just fine.
my new lens arrived on friday. i had a chance to take it out for a test drive today. i haven't had a chance to closely look at all of the pictures but so far the ones i have been able to view appear really sharp. the color is good. next test is with less light to see the full capabilities of the f/2.8 and the image stabilization. i think i am going to get a bunch of keepers from this trip.
i brought the lens on its first assignment to wrigley field today. the light was just a tad bit harsh, oh well. i really just wanted to find the brick, after hearing about it for so long i figured it was the perfect mission for the camera. and i think it succeeded. anyway, for those of you farther away than me (2 blocks) here is a picture of the brick
