I always see this cat hanging around the same spot in my apartments. I pulled up today and just happened to have my camera on hand so I decided to take a couple of photos. There's always a challenge when photographing animals since they don't always sit perfectly still. This guy on the other hand barely noticed as I walked up to him and took his picture. Taken again with my 50mm lens on my 60D.

Had a great easter spent partially in Old Sacramento. I love the bike rental place I shot the first picture at. Its only too bad I can't afford to rent out a bike every time I visit. Guess my two feet will have to do for now;) The flowers managed to catch my eye as I was walking by and I felt compelled to stop and get a shot of them. It wasn't until I was brushing up against them that I realized they were teeming with bees; luckily I escaped unscathed. These were all shot on my EF 50mm 1.8 lens. Its a great little lens for the price and I highly recommend picking one up if your shopping for a lens to shoot video with. The wide aperture makes for some super shallow DOF and it performs great in low light conditions. Its pretty much my go-to lens at this point. I also used an ND filter with the lens since it was a very bright day out.
