some new lenses

I spent the weekend getting to know one of my new lenses, the Nikon 50mm f/1.8D AF Nikkor Lens. I am only beginning to understand what that means. I am used to using a fixed lens since I've got my old Canon AV-1 and the lens on that is fixed. But even so, I constantly find myself trying to zoom in or out. And you can't. You have to rely on your body in space to get the shot you want. Which is a nice thing to be relying on.

And I will say, it is much more difficult to snap shots of strangers when you have zero zoom capability and instead are right up in their grill.
